This country can fix all its problems by simply moving retirement age to 70 and voting age to 30.

Except that, and I know this is a radical leap here, those under 30 really haven't done jack shit with respect to the country's policies. Bush-era radically expanded the power and size of government (Patriot Act springs to mind) and did nothing to restrain or reduce spending; Obama-era radically expanded the scope of government (Obamacare) and "shored up" the Bush-era expansions.

There has never in my political lifetime been an "electable" small government (or even responsible government) candidate.
At this point, I think Ron Paul would be the best choice of recognizable [famous/semi-famous] people to be President. Why? Precisely because we need someone at the Execuitive who is concerned with the debt who has some understanding of the Constitution.
His "insane foreign policy" is, quite honestly a non-issue: that is precisely why Congress has a say in confirming the Presiden't Cabinet.
