At 80, he is America&#8217;s oldest president ever and will be 86 by the conclusion of a hypothetical second term.\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        &#8220;Many doubt he can last another term. If he\u2019s re-elected and serves four years, he would be 86 \u2014 older than all but seven former presidents ever lived,&#8221; Rove said. &#8220;You would think the president\u2019s team would try assuaging the public\u2019s concerns by putting a vigorous, sharp Mr. Biden on display in person.
