To the editor: It is refreshing to learn somebody championing the advantages of expertise and knowledge most frequently attributed to these of us who’ve reached our senior years. The recall a part of my reminiscence could appear missing at instances, however the classes I’ve realized in maturity have improved my judgment tremendously.
Even younger age and brilliance can not overcome the benefit of expertise and knowledge in terms of making essential selections.
As Invoice McKibben writes, President Biden gained his worldview throughout Lyndon B. Johnson’s presidency. And whereas Johnson will not be extremely regarded due to the Vietnam Warfare, he did extra for society than any president since Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Biden, who matured in that period, was little doubt impressed by these spectacular achievements. And he began his presidency with profitable, large initiatives. Think about what he may accomplish if he did not must continuously combat the MAGA extremists at his coattails.

To the editor: Columnist Steve Lopez does not consider Biden as “notably grumpy.” I agree that the president doesn’t come throughout as grumpy in his public persona.
However I feel Biden’s stubbornness in refusing to acknowledge the overwhelming public opinion and polls indicating that Individuals need a second selection within the 2024 election can qualify as a type of grumpiness.
Whatever the age of the candidates, the American individuals deserve a more sensible choice than Biden versus former President Trump.

To the editor: Lopez is correct. Age is an affordable subject within the election, however it’s overplayed.
The president units coverage priorities. It will be significant that the president selects members of his cupboard and administration to implement these insurance policies.
A number of Trump associates — both in his campaigns or administration — have been charged with against the law or convicted. Bear in mind the names Steve Brannon, Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, Peter Navarro and George Nader, to call a number of.
Logic will not be essentially a operate of age. Trump, although he’s a number of years youthful than Biden, clearly doesn’t have common sense.
Character and judgment trump age each time.
