Apparently at 60+ one can't read the following sentence and process the logic of it.

"Also given what life expectancy was back at that time and what it is now, I would argue that those numbers would be even higher if the Constitution were to be drafted today."

Life Exp 1789 - about 50? hold federal office at half of that.
Life Exp 2008 - about 80? half of that is 40ish.
