That's interesting, Nancy Pelosi wasn't elected to the House until she was 47. George II Jan 2021 #17
Is that all you focus on is age George? That's a shortsighted thing to do. IMHO Autumn Jan 2021 #18

I brought up what Nancy was like when she was young. That's not bringing up her age. Autumn Jan 2021 #22

Especially since I posted two threads one after the other. But the day announcer's goal is to get me to stop posting things the announcer doesn't like so to hesitate is to give in to that in way. And these are serious things worth posting so I post.

Personally I can think of no one better to replace Nancy. She reminds me of Pelosi when she was young.

Nancy was a tiger when she was elected. When she was young she didn't want to be a nun, she wanted to be a priest.

That's interesting, Nancy Pelosi wasn't elected to the House until she was 47.


YOU brought up age. I compared the two and their attitudes in their youth.

24. Age is the length of time that a person has lived or a thing has existed.

As in "he died from a heart attack at the age of 51"

Young is having lived or existed for only a short time as in "a young girl"

Words have meanings George. And context means a lot in a sentence.

You brought up Nancy's age. I compared them in their younger years.
