I like Barack Obama's "youth"
I think Obama's relative youth is a plus. So many great thinkers, mathematicians, artists, etc., did their best work at a young age. In so many areas, I would take new ideas, new energy, over experience.

3. Me too. I'm 46 and I don't think of myself as young.
I thought that was middle-age... but what do I know....

4. Maybe you don't realize that

Let's just say... he's on the low end of it.
