US needs federal law limiting age & conviction of The president

 A future (mature) United States Congress must pass laws limiting Presidential age to 76 and preventing presidential candidates convicted of felonies from being eligible for election to the Congress or executive branch! 

Such a law against criminals in Congress or the White House shouldn't be necessary in a democracy except in the case where individuals with no sense of shame, low morals, mental problems and fanatical desires for power persist in claiming eligibility to run.

An upper age limit is necessary because people now are living longer and feeling physically healthier but not necessarily mentally healthy enough for the rigors of office.  

Others remain mentally strong but physically vulnerable to be able to serve out their terms.
