Reagan was a tough guy, he exercised a lot and kept himself in shape. At this stage in the election cycle Hillary is 2 months older than Reagan was, Sanders is three years. Neither Hillary nor Sanders are as in good physical shape as Reagan was. Hillary is overweight, but not grossly so. Sanders just looks like an old geezer.
Reagan had alzheimers. It is a degenerative disease that can be kept in check, but it goes faster as you age. It also goes faster if you are in poor physical shape. Being in good physical shape slows down the progress of the disease.
We don't know who is going to get it. It seem to run in families, but people these days are living lots longer than their parents. We are just finding out who is susceptible.
So we don't know if Hillary or Bernie are susceptible. We know Hillary has memory issues. in the whitewater investigation she had sever memory loss problems in her low 50's. Every question the investigators asked her she claimed she didn't remember. Memory loss problems are an early sign of the disease, which only gets worse as you age. In the whitewater case it could be perjury or early onset alzheimers. Or a combination of problems.
Reagan was a very heathy but elderly man. He managed to keep the disease at bay. We have two candidates who are older than him, and they are way sicker. We have to think of the problems associated with geratic disease.
