Life Is Beautiful 716 Posted August 17, 2017 Only 100 more days to become the oldest-lived US President! You guys (and girls) think he can do it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,226 Posted August 17, 2017 My original thought was no. On second thought, however, I think he can. But I don't think he'll last more than a month afterwards. I've had this feeling for a while now that Bush Sr is 2017's Nelson Mandela: he's known to be ill before 2017, he's going to be hospitalized a lot this year (he's already been hospitalized 3 times?), but he'll eventually keel over in early December. I guess the only thing that's different is that it isn't life threatening yet unlike Mandela... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted August 17, 2017 Jan 31st still up for grabs, then I'll take it Fair play to the oldster, mind - his statement with his son yesterday amounted to a more presidential act than Trump has managed in months 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd also guess that none of the living presidents who've succeeded him will live to be older than Carter is now. Of those conspiciously younger Clinton has health problems, the younger Bush is a recovering alchie who may have done a fair bit of coke too so his internal organs probs have some mileage on 'em and Trump (surely) carries such conflicted emotions inside he's a stroke or heart attack about to happen. Only Obama looks set for a long life IMHO 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,974 Posted August 17, 2017 Methinks Bush Sr breaks the longevity record but fails to shatter the 93-year ceiling set for US presidents. The latter is a task Carter's much better equipped to deal with. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted August 21, 2017 But he's not even looking up like the others? It looks like he simply wants an opportunity to take a nap without anyone noticing. Not going to be much longer now. I'm still thinking September is a good bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Life Is Beautiful 716 Posted August 22, 2017 Leave Mr. President alone, I think he looks great and happy. Less purple and with none of that last few months painful grin too. Also, why does Barbara Bush always wear the same sweater? Who does she think she is? Marge Simpson? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
