It's not unlike the US constitution. We don't let 17 year old people vote either. There is a good reason for these rules.
Considering, Endeavor's MEC chair walked right into the 119 Chief Pilot's chair upon completion of his term......
And for the record if ALPA were actually a union we probably wouldn't have some of today's issues.
