ElBaradei says Egypt needs president in 40s or 50s

Reformer Mohamed ElBaradei, a former Nobel Laureate, said his personal goal was to help build a democratic Egypt rather than bid for the presidency, and said the country's next leader should be in their 40s or 50s.

ElBaradei was a vocal critic of President Hosni Mubarak, 82, who resigned on Friday after unprecedented nationwide protests. Supporters have seen the former UN nuclear watchdog head as a possible president. Critics say he spent too much time abroad. (Reuters)
