Is Vivek Ramaswamy Too Young to Be President?

September 13, 2023 · 4:00 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Wall Street Journal: “Ramaswamy is among the youngest candidates ever to run for president, and he’s doing it in an election where both parties’ leading contenders would be the oldest nominees in U.S. history. The distinction has both helped him stand out in a crowded GOP field and emerged as a liability at a time when voters and Republican party leaders are giving his candidacy more scrutiny.”

“The critique of inexperience is familiar to the long list of young contenders who have challenged establishment orthodoxy in recent presidential elections.”
