12. What president that you know of that did NOT age while in office?

Mar 2015

I have a theory that Presidents who age the most really are not biologically wired for the job.

I don't know about other countries, being president of THIS country is a stressful job. I don't want the job, and I wouldn't want anybody that I know of to have it. But some people appear to love the challenge.

And, right now I only know of people that I would want as POTUS, and my first choice would be Liz Warren (if she chooses to except it). But she appears to not want it (at this time either) so there you go, smart woman.

BTW, your link doesn't show any hint that Bernie took money from these lobbyists ... Scuba Mar 2015 #14

Read the guest list and then read the article. Thinkingabout Mar 2015 #22

And you claim it isnt true, where is your link it isnt true. Thinkingabout Mar 2015 #45

Politico didn't show any proof that Sen Sanders was there. They didn't even rhett o rick Mar 2015 #48
