As democratic candidates prepare for a intense race in the preliminary, age often matters when talking about whether one or the other is the right to the White House, Periscope translates.
On Wednesday, Senator Bernie Saunders announced he would be competing again. If he won, he would become the oldest candidate in history, spending Donald Trump for seven years. As 76 years old, Joe Biden is another one who can enter the race, and he'd break the record just like Sanders did.
However, the age gap is too big. Pete Butttigig just turned 37, becoming the youngest candidate to enter the race for president.
Concres is seeing an increase of new members, as well. In January, 29-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez became the youngest in the history of this institution.
