Why should you have to be 35 to run for president? We have elections right?
I remember a movie I saw on cable TV as a kid, "Wild In The Streets," and an old comic book I found in the Library called "Prez," both centered on 18-year-olds getting elected to the Presidency (both set in peak Baby Boomer youth population of 1968, I think)... in the movie, the President is a popular teen idol rock star with a devoted following, everybody over 35 gets dosed with LSD, man, then put into internment camps...
I take that as a peek of what somebody was afraid of later on... originally, who knows?
