Check it out!

Council President Luke Ravenstahl, 26, of Summer Hill, became the youngest mayor in city history shortly after Mr. O’Connor passed away last night.

In remarks to news reporters earlier in the day, Mr. Ravenstahl acknowledged that his youth “is an issue that many will raise. But I am here. I have been the president. I have been elected by my district, I have been elected by my colleagues, and I’m more than confident that if and when I’m called upon, I’m here to serve the residents of the city.”

Bah, amateur. Alexander had conquered the western Mediterranean, AND Persia by the time he was 26.

In about eight-to-nine years, he can running for president, and be elected in 2016 at the age of 36. (I’m assuming he’s a native-born citizen.)

Hey, you never know…

Well at least he dresses and grooms himself as though it was 1945, so that should count for something.
