What is the perfect age for a President?
Like of course the minimum is 35 but no one thinks anyone under 40 can ever hold the job that's for true.
But what is ideal? Like you want the person to have tons of experience either in politics or management with some armed forces or foreign experience, ideally. That takes time to build up.
On the other hand you need someone with energy, stamina, and also good looking.
Important too they they be 'in touch' with the electorate; if you go too young you're going to get the older people feeling unrepresented, and of course what 25-year old wants to be told what to do by some old relic still living through the New Deal.
Assume the guy is going to be there for 8 years and we need him as good as he is going out as he is going in. Assume of course the best medical care, and general good health going in.
50?
55?
60?
65?
Now, I'm going to go with 55. I think 55 is the perfect age for a President.

2)
Air Force One has exactly a
66% audience rating.
