@makeitmythic Maybe they felt (as I used to) that the lower limit helps ensure breadth of experience and maturity, but it's up to the voters (originally the states themselves) to have confidence and faith in their choices. There may have been a time when elected officials acted in the best interest of their office and the people they represent, but they only seem to represent their campaign funds and today's voters don't have enough education, sincerity, compassion, or concern for the consequences to make the right decisions.
