being an adult has nothing to do with the presidency. the idea is to have a well rounded, experienced adult run for president. not a person who is just getting into adulthood.
21 is adult totally. 25 is the age you can rent a car lol

Looking at it from a legal standpoint and depending on locality, from 18 to 21 years of age.
for some jobs like senator and president, there are certain qualifications you have to have, for example education and temperment.
as for me, I'm 54 but still have a 17 year old mentality...growing up is not all it's cracked up to be....

Man, this is a tough one. My wife doesn't think I am a full adult yet and I'm 54. Sometimes older people call me a young kid.
My son and daughter act more adult than I do. I just have more adult responsibilities than they do.
Why does anyone want to become a full fledged adult anyhow?

Legally 18, yet it isnt any fun until 21. At 18 you can vote, join the military, get married and yet you still cant drink. How dumb is that!

I'd say 25 is a good solid adult age!

well, I'm not so sure the last guy that ran and won for president should be considered an adult...so it's pretty subjective, isn't it? LOL
