On topic, but actually not - I think there should be a higher minimum age for all offices, from the presidency on down. Not so much because of brain maturity, but because if you can't get into politics until you are 40 years old you have to have a life before you become a politician.

That sounds like an excellent idea. Wow. The implications are staggering.
