This is a really thorough analysis and comment-structure re 'Aging politicians' Robert. Well done!.

After reading it, my first reaction was to highlight your Mitt Romney quote:

“It’s time for a new generation of leaders ... They’re the ones that need to make the decisions that will shape the world they will be living in.”, then I recalled your earlier comment that:

"Extensive ongoing research involving a group of older people who still have it all together finds their brains remain “remarkably and mysteriously intact ... The memories and other cognitive skills of superagers hold up even into their 80s." - and as an 82 year-old myself, I'm left in quite a quandary!

Only joking really cos I am inclined to go with Mitt Romney in the wider real world ... especially in politics.

Robert, its nice to be reading you again.

Best wishes,

Fred
