Kinder: The President of the USA wants to be re-elected, although he is very old. A lot of people wonder if that’s smart because he’d be 86 if he had one more term in office.
NDR Info children’s news: Joe Biden, the President of the United States of America, would be 86 years old at the end of a possible second term. So what if he retired? This week he announced that he would like to run again in the next elections next year. Despite the old age. Because even during his first term in office, he set a record: as the oldest US President of all time. There is now a lot of discussion about his age – also because he has seemed a bit confused to some in some appearances in the past.
Kinder: A president has to do a lot of paperwork and fly a lot to other countries to talk to other presidents. Or do a lot of events. For an older person, that might be very tiring. And it is also not known whether Joe Biden will then also know what the interests of younger people are. For example for 20-year-olds or school children.
NDR Info children’s news: Even in his own party – among the Democrats – many are against a second term for Joe Biden. However, right now it is difficult to find another candidate who is known and loved enough across the country to win such an important election. It is therefore not at all unlikely that the Democrats will nominate Joe Biden for the second time as a candidate for the presidential election.
