I think you are making a lot of good points here, but in a really, "I'm just a simple country farmer" sorta tone. We didn't get here on accident. When I was young Obama ran for office and he is consistently still the youngest political figure we see doing anything. We have systemically leaned into old white men so hard in the last ten years that it feels like a joke.

The age of our politicians has begun to skyrocket. The AVERAGE senators should not be 64 years old, I don't think a single American would argue it should be. But it is.
