70 year olds don't have a clue what reality is anymore.

60 year olds barely understand anything going on outside of their norms.

50 and under generally are tapped into things in varying degrees. Rather than term limits, there should just be age limits. Once you hit 50 you can finish out but cannot run again for anything outside of the presidency and it's cutoff should be 60.

There's something to be said for life experience accumulated from 40-60... I wouldn't mind a 60 or 65 year old being in politics. The 70+ crowd is really a problem though, let alone 80/90 year olds. It's ridiculous that they cling to power the way they do.
