Age isn’t inherently a bad thing in politics. We’re a representative democracy,
I am not a workaholic. I want to retire from my profession some day, not continue working while in hospice care.
I want to be represented by someone who understands and shares my values, which includes a desire to enjoying life after retirement.
I want my representatives to value and promote the idea of recreation, hobbies, volunteer work, etc. Which means they will be retiring from professional work around 65, not 90.
Being of retirement age is an inherently bad thing in professional politics.

Just because it’s what you want doesn’t mean you speak for everyone. That’s the point of democracy.
