Grandmother Hillary Clinton, 67, is vying to become one of the oldest world leaders in history. In order to achieve that goal, however, she may have to defeat a slate of Democratic challengers who are even older than she is.
[Snip]
{Jerry] Brown would be the oldest Democrat in the race; hell be 78 in 2016. Biden will be 73. Sanders will be 75. Hillary, who will be 69 on Election Day, would be younger by comparison. If Elizabeth Warren decides to run, she would be the youngest Democrat, thought not by much. Warren will be 67 in 2016.
Democratic leaders in Congress, meanwhile, are also very old. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi will be 76 years old in 2016. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid will be 77.

Me papoose when compare-um to Moonbeam of LooneyLand, Plugs of Hair, and Thunder-Thighs in Old Crusty!
I don’t know.....I’m thinking there’s a “dark” horse female still out there that be out there thinking Obama II...... :0)
Growing OLD in inevitable.
Growing WISE is optional.
Bill Cosby and Bill C,inton could both campain for Hillary with the women regarding the war on women.
I dont know.....Im thinking theres a dark horse female still out there that be out there thinking Obama II...... :0)
You've got a good point ... Aunt Esther is indeed a dark horse and she will only be 52 ...
Now that you mention it, from certain angles, she DOES look like a horse.
No, That would be Sarah Jessica Parker. :0)
Susan Rice?
That’s really hard to say. Think back to 2006/7 in the run up to the 2008 election. Who in the h3ll here, or anywhere really, would have put up Barack Hussein Obama as a viable candidate.
This whole process is a cabal-ish mix of moneyed interests, power factions, and political ideologies of the real power brokers. There are probably a few unknown candidates who would fit this black/Hispanic-female-as-president meme. Just hasn’t been determined yet that is what he/she will be.
To be sure, the democrats have plenty of black and Hispanic officeholders at lower levels, but they are mostly products of in-bred ethnic machine politics and turn off most voters outside their own gerrymandered districts.
43 years old and 50 years old, respectively.
That may be the oldest looking E-5 I’ve ever seen.
A possible 2016 Republican field and their 2016 ages:
Peter King 72
Mitt Romney 69
Rick Perry 66
Ben Carson 65
Jeb Bush 63
Lindsay Graham 61
Mike Huckabee 61
Rob Portman 60
Rick Santorum 58
Jon Huntsman 56
Chris Christie 54
Rand Paul 53
Sarah Palin 52
Scott Walker 49
Paul Ryan 46
Bobby Jindal 45
Ted Cruz 45
Marco Rubio 45
There could be a few others such as Herman Cain (70), Michele Bachmann (69), Mike Pence (57), Mitch Daniels (67), John Kasich (64), Allen West (55) who might throw their hat in the ring in order to enhance name recognition or be considered as VP candidates.
The same was true of BJ Clinton in 1992; many more serious contenders sat it out assuming the Dem candidate would lose to Bush I, and Clinton was a relative nobody.
Michele Bachmann (Born: April 6, 1956) will be 60 in 2016, not 69.
Michelle Bachmann is in her late 50s, not 60s. And looks better than most in their late 40s.
so how will Hillary walk the stages of her 2016 debates without a cane? by the time she’s debating Cruz, odds are she will need a cane, maybe Bill will assist her to the podium all three times?
Michele Bachmann will be 69????? That took me by surprise!
