I thought carefully about jumping into the affray about the issue of age. Why? “Cause I’m getting older, too.” To be honest, Biden probably shouldn’t have run for President in 2020, but he realized that no one else could defeat Trump, so he went for it, as the final act of a long political career.
Because Biden’s poll numbers are so low at the moment, Democrats are looking at ways to sideline him. (Or, more correctly, the main stream media are looking for ways to sideline him.) So, ageism is rearing its ugly head. Even my astrologer friend in California (“hi, Steve”) has stated from the very beginning that Biden would be a one-term president, but short of anyone assassinating him, he may be healthy enough to do four more years. The question is really: does anyone want Kamala Harris to succeed him? So, the issue may not really be about age, after all.
The midterm elections may sort this out anyway, so why worry now?
