Which Presidents do you believe are likely to live to be 100 years old?

Discuss

[Mr. Smith]

Carter and Obama.

Jury's out with Clinton and Bush Jr.

Skeptical about Bush Sr, and I'd be surprised if Trump lived much past the end of his last term.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Carter and Obama.

Clinton isn't in such a good health.

[politicallefty]

I'll try to give an honest assessment here, even if it might be a bit morbid:

I think Carter has a good chance.

HW doesn't look so good, tbh.

Clinton, I just don't know.

I could see GWB beating his father in age, so it's definitely possible.

Obama is way too young to really say one way or the other.

As for Trump, I don't think he'll hit his 80th birthday.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Carter : the most likely
Bush Sr: some chance
Clinton: no
Bush Jr: possibly
Obama: possibly
Trump: no

[President Johnson]

Carter: possible
Poppy Bush: possible, but I don't think so
Clinton: unlikely (maybe 90)
Doubya: possible
Obama: possible
Trump: unlikely (90 at best)

[Lachi]

Carter: I would bet money on him making it, but not much more than 10o, maybe 102-104
George H. W. Bush: No
Clinton: after Trump, the least likely of them
Dubya: Maybe
Obama: Too early to tell
Trump: He won't make 85 imo

[dead0man]

Carter needs to make Oct 2024...seems unlikely
HW also needs to hit 24, Jun, also seems unlikely
Bill needs Aug 46, that's SO far, but he'll get the best health care, I'd bet against it
Dubya, oddly was born in 46 too, Jun.  He's a healthy man and has too very old parents, odds are pretty damn good he'll hit 100.
Obama, 2061.  He's healthy too.  Smoker though.  Both parents died younger than he is now, not a good sign.  I'd bet he makes it though.
Trump, holy hell, born in Jun 46 too.  I'd bet against it.  He is doughy.

[Unapologetic Chinaperson]

My thoughts

Carter: Hopefully yes. Just look at him work at Habitat for Humanity and shrug off cancer!
HW Bush: Unfortunately no. He has been hospitalized a lot recently, so I doubt he lives past 100.
Clinton: Likely no. His bad eating habits had caused heart problems before, and I think they'll catch up to him.
W Bush: Likely yes. He has good exercise habits.
Obama: Likely yes. He's in good health, being able to still play basketball and all.
Trump: Likely no. He has genetics and a lack of substance abuse on one hand, but I think his weight and bad eating habits outweigh these factors.

From Most Likely to least likely:

1. Carter
2. Obama
3. Dubya
4. Clinton
5. Trump
6. HW Bush

[Person Man]

Carter : the most likely
Bush Sr: some chance
Clinton: no
Bush Jr: possibly
Obama: possibly
Trump: no

Do you think for Obama that living into the future will be of any benefit?

[SoLongAtlas]

NotA. Carter is the most likely but his recent health scares and brain cancer (albeit treated) makes me think he only has a few more years left. He is a great man and a true post-presidential statesman so I wish he does make it to 100 or beyond.

Same with Bush Sr but he has had so many recent scares so I doubt he makes it.

Clinton, no. Way too many heart problems, obesity, etc. but he did change to a paleo diet and that has helped him.

GWB, maybe but I'm thinking late 80s or early 90s only.

Obama, tbd, but considering his genetics and smoking, probably 80s only.

Trump will not hit 100 (obesity, probably other problems, but he doesn't smoke or drink so that is a bonus), his mother was 88, his dad hit 93 but had Alzheimer's.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Carter and Trump, Trump is Biff in back to the future and Carter seems ageless

Clintons and Obamas will die in their 80's

and HW Bush is near death but Barbara might

There isn't no timeline on death when it comes to politicans, Anthony Kennedy, Ginnsberg, Scalia and John Paul Stevens assured us that

Fatal Heart Attacks are going down with blood transfusions.

[Dr. MB]

Carter could. He'll live at least 5 more years.
Bush Sr., no. He's not in great health.
Clinton, probably not.
Bush Jr., maybe.
Obama, too early to tell.
Trump, no.

[Lord Admirale]

Jimmy Carter is invincible. He said he didn't want treatment for cancer and it just disappeared.

No matter who you are or what level access to care one might have, once you get into your 90s death rate is very high. Just look at Social Security Dept publishes these statistics.  Gerrald Ford got 96 years or so. If you had me guess both GHWB & Carter dies before their 100rdth birthday, with Carter hwith better chance. Carter always had a good lifestyle despite the recent cancer. Trump it is hard to see achieving old age. Obama smoked cigarettes so we will see if that has any effect, so far not that we can tell, rgough he is only about 56 years. Bill has heart and blood pressure problems and has almost 30 years to go.

Actually Ford was only 93 years and 165 days. He is the oldest President to ever live, but Reagan didn't lose by much, and Carter and George HW Bush only have  few months to go to beat both of them.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

little known fact: William Howard Taft is alive and hibernating in a root cellar.

[Free Bird]

Carter I can totally see
HW Bush will probably pass during this current presidential term, TBH
Clinton will probably make it into his late 80s, but no more than early 90s
W Bush may. He's doing a lot better than Clinton and they're the same age. Probably late 90s
Obama will at the very least make it to his 90s
Trump may have 10 years left in him assuming he leaves the White House in 2025

[DFL]

HW doesn't look so good, tbh.

Bush Sr. has downright melted

[America's Sweetheart ❤/𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕭𝖔𝖔𝖙𝖞 𝖂𝖆𝖗𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖗]

Carter and Bush both have serious health problems, but seeing as they're only 7 years away from 100, it's certainly not impossible one of them will make it that far - if I had to guess, I'd say Carter will probably slightly outlive H.W Bush. W. Bush and Obama are both in excellent health and I could see either one making it to 100, while Trump is DEFINITELY not going to make it to 100, given he's obese and basically lives off of fast food, not to mention he apparently only gets 4 hours of sleep a night.
