Joe has my vote. But I want to mention something that might help set aside the ageist criticism. [View all]

Joe squints, in front of the cameras.

Whether he is reading the teleprompter or just speaking into a bank of bright lights. He squints.

It makes him look older.

Maybe he should have some glasses that are anti-glare. He looks super cool in his shades, he would look just as cool in glasses that prevent the need for squinting.
