Libertarian

Strongly agree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

This answer aligns well with libertarian concerns about government power and the potential for abuse. Libertarians often caution against subjective measures that could be exploited for political purposes, preferring to limit government's role in personal and professional qualifications.

Agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

Libertarians might view term limits as a more acceptable form of regulation that can help prevent the entrenchment of power and encourage political turnover, without infringing on individual rights as much as competency tests or age restrictions would.

Agree

No

Slightly agree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

Libertarians might agree with the sentiment against discrimination, including age discrimination. However, their agreement would be more about opposing unnecessary regulations rather than specifically supporting older politicians.

Neutral

No, our government needs experienced leaders

While libertarians value experience, they also value competency and freedom from government mandates.

Disagree

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

While this option promotes equality by applying the same standard to politicians of all ages, it still represents a form of government intervention that libertarians typically oppose. They would likely argue that the electorate should decide a politician's fitness for office.

Disagree

Yes

Libertarians generally prioritize individual freedom and autonomy, including the right to run for office without undue restrictions. They might view mandatory mental competency tests for older politicians as an unnecessary government intrusion, although they could see the rationale behind ensuring leaders are fit for office.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

Banning individuals from running for office based on age is antithetical to libertarian principles of individual freedom, autonomy, and minimal government restrictions on personal liberties.
