OK with an 80-year-old president? How about a surgeon? Poll finds surprising answers
WASHINGTON — Most Americans think it's OK for someone in their eighties to serve as president of the United States, but think less of their ability to serve in other professional occupations, a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll shows.
The poll of 1,000 registered voters found that 59.6% of survey respondents are somewhat or very comfortable with someone in their eighties serving as president, while 34% of respondents said they are not very or not at all comfortable. Another 6.4% said they were undecided.
By contrast, a majority of respondents said they are not very or not at all comfortable with a professional in their eighties performing other occupations like performing surgery (62.3%) , piloting a flight (60.2%)or driving a school bus (55%).
Questions around age and acuity have surrounded the 2024 race with the presumptive general election matchup between Donald Trump, 77, and Joe Biden, 81, who would each hold the distinction of being the oldest person to take the oath of office if sworn in next January.
