Being a president is similar to being a parent.
You need a lot of energy,
Physically fit,
Mentally ready,
Adequate knowledge,
Emotional maturity,
Financially strong,
and to be fair,
age matters.
You can’t achieve all of that in early 20s,
Or in the late 50s.
Best soft spot for being a parent is between 27-37 (personal opinion).
Best range to be a leader is 40-63, just exactly like Rasulullah becomes a prophet.
No younger than 40, no older than 63.
Why being an older parent is not recommended other than medical issue?
No adequate energy left because you have to deal with a lot of things inside your body.
You can’t take others well while you can’t even take care of yourself.
Being older is also being slower (and lazier), that’s why grandmas/pas don’t fit to raise a kid.
They only suit for the easy part. They’re tired already.
while parenting and running a country are fast paced job.
You might have the money, but without the energy to do the thinking, it’s disaster.
We might have never been able to raise the bar too much for this country, whoever is chosen later, things might not improve as much as we expect, but at least, we hope to not return to where we started, or worse than now.
Hopefully.
Totally agree. In the States, we worry so much about seeming ageist, but the reality is, aging has its benefits and place in society, and being a new parent or president is not one of them.
Exactly! We’re currently facing the same problem right now and really hope for the best for the next week election.
