Yes wanting Biden to step aside in 2024 because of his age is ageism.
I see articles and maundering reporters using a small sample of Democratic voters to say Biden shouldn't run again because of his age. Yes, if only Biden can change magically change his age, which he can't. Also, if you replace age with race, "If only he wasn't black, I would be excited for his running for President again" this sounds racist. If you flip it over with the word age, its ageism.
Plus, if President Biden wasn't in great shape or his health were declining, someone from his staff would have leaked to the press. That hasn't happened which means President Biden is in good health to run again.
