USFuneralDirector 2 Posted December 6, 2013 A year ago, 4 major world leaders were in the hospital: Chavez, Thatcher, Mandela, and Bush. Now Bush is the only one, still living. Should definitely, be on the 2014 DL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,978 Posted December 25, 2013 I would guess that ex-US presidents literally get the best healthcare in the world. And that is enough to get them above the age of 90. Nixon died at 91, Reagan and Ford at 93. Carter is 89 and looking fine. Bush Sr. is at least good for another year. He might have health problems, but doesn't do bad for a 89-year old. Just look at Cheney who somehow lives on without a heartbeat and six (?) strokes. Something must have changed in the 80s about the life money can buy.

Actually Nixon died at age 81 from a severe stroke in 1994, his wife pat had died the previous year, that and the stress from the ups and downs of his life from Watergate and everything I have no doubt contributed to his relatively early demise, at least early compared to his four immediate successors Ford, Carter, Reagan and Bush Sr. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ford and The Bushes were all former college athletes and Carter was a farmer so they have that in their favor. I doubt Obama who was a heavy smoker and Clinton who was a fast food junkie will reach 90 or beyond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cos.... he is? He's a pompous, unbearable cunt who makes Ed Balls look like someone I want to hang out with. Are you not confusing him for his annoying Labour-voting cunt of a wife? No.... I see little reason to really distinguish the two anyway, but still no. BTW I didn't want to actually spark a discussion of that incredible twat, I was just making a joke about how much that guy looks like him......... if you wanna continue the argument you'll be continuing it by yourself.
