There should be mandatory retirement from all government offices at age 75.

Actually, I would favor a minimum age of 55. This would eliminate career politicians and it would take advantage of people's sage experience in life because they would have had to succeeded in the private industry for 30+ years before heading to Washington.

So, y’all think Ronald Reagan shouldn’t have been President, then.

I wholeheartedly agree. Half of the senate has mental illness.
