Age Matters More Than Sexual Orientation to Voters

[Honeycombe8]

4. That's a catchy sentence that's great in ads for L'Oreal, but in reality, age is more than a number.

The body starts breaking down as a person ages, as well as the brain. Mental acuity lessens. A person is much more likely to get certain illnesses and medical conditions. (example: Reagan, who was otherwise healthy & lived a healthy lifestyle with excellent health care...he was diagnosed w/Altzheimer's while in office, at about age 75.)

This is biology. It applies to every human being. It's the natural aging process. Although the process is faster or slower in different individuals.

This doesn't mean that someone over 70 or 80 isn't up to the job. It depends on the person. A nurse once told me that the last good decade for a man is the 70s. There's a rapid decline once they are in their 80s. (She had experience with seniors.)

For some voters, they're fine with it. Others are concerned about it. Voters have to decide for themselves.

If the nominee is Biden, at least the opponent is also over 70.
