Institute a "Maximum Age" allowed in order to be an elected representative of the People.

Created by P.F. on March 04, 2013

It's no secret that our representatives are unwilling to break party lines and do what is best for the United States and solving our current financial crisis. A lot of this is due to them being out of touch with their constituents namely due to the large gap in the age of voters vs. their representatives.
I propose instituting a "Maximum Age" cap of sixty five (65) years of age for being eligible to be an elected member of the Senate or the House of Representatives.
Having a relatively younger demographic representing the People could allow for more progress to be made and an increased possibility of more open-minded, productive dialogue between representatives on opposite sides of the party line.
