To be fair, if we're going to talk averages, the average in the US senate is still lower than that at ~65, and life expectancies have gone up. But yeah, US leaders are similarly ancient

The average age in the Senate is massively pushed downwards by freaks like Marco Rubio and other Republicans. Pretty sure that the Senate dems on average are closer to 70 than 45.

Figured it was more a question of removing the outliers rather than using the correct kind of average. Or just changing the sample size until you get the grouping that gives you the funny answer.
