(Worthy News) – Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell’s unexplained freezeup while speaking in Congress this week is the latest reminder that America’s most powerful political leaders are much older than many in other democracies.
Joe Biden, 80, is the oldest U.S. president to ever serve in the White House, and nearly two decades older than the median age of the world’s national leaders, 62, Pew Research found.
While Biden is younger than 89-year-old President Paul Biya of Cameroon, the world’s oldest head of state, he could be a grandfather to Chilean President Gabriel Boric or Sanna Marin, who stepped down as Finland’s prime minister last month. Both are 37.
Yet Biden is years younger than some members of the U.S. Congress. [ Source: US News and World Report (Read More…) ]
