So I'm curious as to why the Democrats thinks a septuagenarian is their best bet at winning the election? The following are the average ages of the last 14 president's at the start of their presidency. Seven are Democrats and seven are Republicans.
Democrats - 50.6 years old (median 51)
Republicans - 62.3 years old (median 62)
Is there some evidence that suggests an older candidate will bring Democrats success?
