What’s best for an aging leader and many people of their age range who he will be naturally biased towards is generally shitting on the future or passing the buck, what’s to worry about when you’ll be gone, fuck those kids.
Either that, or to prevent age-bias, run them through a battery of physical and mental tests, the results of which are public. Hell, make the testing itself public.
Plus, how can you have every American filling out a standard job application giving prospective employers access to high school and college grades and such, but presidential candidates get to hide whatever details they prefer? Being president is a job -- the people are the employer. Every candidate's grades, every misdemeanor or arrest, every SAT score and IQ test, should be available to the public.
How can getting into a college be more transparent than becoming president?
Biden should have had televised Alzheimer's tests. Trump should have been disqualified for hiding all of his grades and taxes every step of the way. If a person is an idiot, either proven via psych testing or his grades, then why is he a candidate for president?
