U.S. President Joe Biden is the oldest-ever U.S. leader. Biden is expected to soon reveal if he'll seek a second term in the Oval Office.
And while Biden may already be 80, Jena said the U.S. president appears to be in good health — and his health may differ substantially from an average person of the same age.
"We know that chronological age, alone, isn't really a great indicator of a person's capabilities in later life," said Chasteen, an expert on age stereotypes and ageism.The topic of Biden's age has been raised by political opponents throughout his presidency — including afterU.S. President Joe Biden is seen holding a phone on Thursday, in order to pose for a selfie with a group of people, after the U.S. leader spoke about Social Security and Medicare in Tampa, Fla.
"That got a lot of media attention," said Chasteen, noting that when such "errors or mistakes" are explicitly linked to aging, that makes is harder to convey that a person "is doing his job competently and is aging very well, overall."York University's Loepkky said Americans invest a lot in the individual leading their country — and that leads to scrutiny about a candidate's personality and suitability for the job.
But he said it's also a topic that some Republican opponents are using on a tactical basis amid a vitriolic political climate.
