    As has already been pointed out, the US senate average is still (a little) lower, but anyway for reference Brezhnev was 75 when he died as leader, Andropov died at 69, and Chernenko at 73

      Yeah Andropov and Chernenko where not so much old as ailing. Wasn't Chernenko smoking since he was 15?
