No, I didn't know that. Kind of changes my VP idea of things (even though Reagan was 69 when he was elected).
Palin needs a conservative VP in her 2016 re-election who will, like Reagan's Bush, be swept in because of Palin's success and will, unlike Reagan's Bush, firmly stay the conservative, limited government, economic freedom course as POTUS for another eight years.
Isn't 70 supposed to be the new 50? The older I get, the more I value age and maturity.
