In terms of optics and in terms of energy, I wish President Biden were younger.
And from the casual conversations all around me and the formal polling of voters, I know I’m in robust company.
A great many Americans consider his age unideal, and that belief is why there’s no wishing away the focus on it.
Even so, aspects of the subject actually get too little consideration, starting with this crushingly obvious and yet frequently overlooked fact: The presidency isn’t a solo mission.
And the president of the United States is only as good as the advisers around him, whose selection reflects presidential judgment, not stamina.
