      That’s their distinction between candidate and nominee. Biden was a candidate for 2024 presidential race but had not yet become the DNC nominee.

          I think he is.

          But I don’t know the ages of every failed campaign. It’s easy to check the winners, but there might have been someone even older that lost.

          But I doubt it.
