The Advantages of Old Age for Biden

There are serious disadvantages to being a really old president. Three-quarters of Americans think Joe Biden is too old to effectively serve in our nation’s highest elected office. Sixty-nine percent of Democrats said he was too old, in a poll taken last August.

But I’ve started to think that Biden’s age presents him just as many advantages as disadvantages. Namely, Joe Biden is just too old to be a tribune of the young progressive Left. A man with the nickname “Sleepy Joe” can’t be too woke.
