Same here, Mr President. My prayers are with you for a full recovery.

Keep in mind, if he makes it past election day, he will be the oldest living ex-President.

He's the oldest living former President no matter what.

I think the poster is trying to say that he will become the president with the longest life then.

Ronald Reagan was 93 years and 119 days old when he died. President Ford will match that on November 10. Every day after that he will set a new record for longest-living former President.

Here's your SAT question:
If Gerald Ford is older than Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton now, on election day who will be the oldest?

A. Gerald Ford
B. Jimmy Carter
C. George H.W. Bush
D. It's impossible to tell.

:-)

It depends on what the meaning of "oldest" is.
