While I like the idea, I can’t imagine it would pass a constitutional test. However, an age limit that kicks in only after a person has been in an elected position for X years probably could. This would allow an 81 year old that had never held office to run for the first time and not be discriminated based on age.
If only the Constitution was amendable.

Welp, back to our FPTP hellscape reality.
You think the US is a hellscape? Wow.
I think that one of the greatest things about the Constitution, the idea that it’s dynamic, has been lost to this two-party lock that won’t allow for any amendments and treats the document like a religious text instead of a tool we can and should update to be relevant and responsive when absolutely necessary.
But go off about how much I hate this country or whatever. I’m clearly very apathetic about its vision.
IMHO, corporate social media has ruined American culture. It has amplified detrimental voices to society and at the heart of America’s woes is a rotting culture.
