There was a Guardian article, possibly in the G2 supplement, indicating that if victorious Hillary will be the 2nd oldest President to be inaugurated while Donald would be the oldest! I think the record is Ronald Reagan at 69.
At that age there is the possibility of the Vice President could become President .

This guy has penned so many great tunes, mostly on the Soul/R&B front from the 70s/80s. Always a little known fact that he was a Brit from Cleethorpes. Quite possibly had the same effect on Soul/R&B as Lennon/McCartney had on Rock/Pop. RIP.
