First Lady’s Speech
- Share via
The constant replay on TV of President Bush’s fainting spell and loss of food reinforces my belief that a man or woman past age 65 should not be allowed to run in a presidential race. Our former President had a host of medical problems that were highly publicized.
Isn’t recognizing one’s limitations part of growing old? I’m not suggesting that the rest of the population past 65 throw in the towel. I refer only to the individual who holds the highest office in the land.
Let’s hope that in the future we have no more presidents napping at midday meetings.
