Joe Biden Age: Biden Is The Oldest President To Take Office In American History – How old is Biden?

Joe Biden age has become a topic of discussion as he takes over office of the World most powerful nation, United state of America.

Bidden is officially the oldest President to take office of the president in American history.

The 46th president of the United States also served as Barack Obama’s vice president from 2008-2016.

Who Is Joe Biden?

Joe Biden briefly worked as an attorney before turning to politics. He became the fifth-youngest U.S. senator in history as well as Delaware’s longest-serving senator.

His 2008 presidential campaign never gained momentum, but Democratic nominee Barack Obama selected him as his running mate, and Biden went on to serve two terms as the 47th vice president of the United States.

In 2017, at the close of his administration, Obama presented Biden with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Two years later Biden launched his campaign for U.S. president and was elected as the 46th president of the United States.

How old is Joe Biden?

Amongst Joe Biden’s five living predecessors – Donald Trump, Barack Obama, George W Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter – he is the second oldest.

Only Jimmy Carter, who is now 96, has an edge on Mr Biden in terms of age. The President was born on November 20, 1942, making him 78 years old.

He will serve for at least one term, meaning he would also become the first President to celebrate an 80th birthday in office.

Mr Biden will turn 80 just days following the US midterm elections in 2022, and by the end of his first term will turn 82.

Should he decide to run again, he would come close to 90, as a his departure from office in 2028 would come not long after he turns 86.

Mr Biden’s age has come up before in discussions about the US presidency, with some pundits convinced he will serve only one term.

And the President has addressed the subject several times before.

Infoexpert24 recalls that the president while speaking to hosts on The View, he approached his age as a strength rather than weakness.

He also dismissed the idea he would choose to serve a single term.

Mr Biden said: “I think it’s important for people – it’s a legitimate question to ask about my age.

“Hopefully, I can demonstrate that with age comes wisdom and experience that can make things a lot better.

“That’s for you all to decide, not for me to decide.”

The President’s doctor released a health assessment of Mr Biden in 2019 which described him as “a healthy, vigorous, 77-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.”
