    Every time people fixate on age limits i think of how Bernie spent the last decade running circles around everyone in Congress on actual sensible good policies for Americans.

      Can I get an AMEN? He’s a prime example of someone I think about when I hear a prejudice it is politically correct to hold - in fact, it’s even fashionable to constantly espouse it - and that is ageism.

      I also think of him when I think of the vapid discussions about “term limits”.

      Its not necessarily the age that matters but it can. Accountability matters far more than age restrictions.
