Letter: More power to Biden’s octogenarian elbow!

Assessing Joe Biden, the current US president (“Issue of Biden’s age should not prevent planning for his succession”, Opinion, January 7) Edward Luce writes that “it strains credulity to believe he could have enough energy at the end of his second term, when he would be 86”.

I’ve never cast a vote for Biden. But I have known enough octogenarians to be certain that many of them would make more competent US presidents than what we’ve seen in the last 30 years.
