Or you can prepare a lil cup of Ad Hominem if that suits your agenda.
His comments on the decision:
“I’ve spent my last 25 years in public service of one kind or another. At the end of another term, I’d be in my mid-80s”
“Frankly, it’s time for a new generation of leaders. They’re the ones that need to make the decisions that will shape the world they will be living in.”
Sound statements to my ears. I hope to see more elderly politicians take inspiration from his move.

Thank you for carrying on sound discourse over hyperpartisan drivel in my absence.
His statements bear out a reality that most folks claim to want in their leaders. Folks who do the job and recognize when they've served and it's time to step away instead of clinging to power tying to run things as octogenarians. This is a self-imposed term limit.
The zealots will try to turn anything into part of their culture war, but we see through it.
