72 Things Younger Than John McCain is a book by American blogger Joe Quint.[1] The book lists items from popular culture that were invented after John McCain's birth in 1936, including nachos, Social Security,[2] chocolate chip cookies, duct tape and ZIP codes.[1] 72 Things Younger Than John McCain also includes people who are younger than McCain, even though the reader might believe them to be older.[1] Quint used the book to show how the age of a candidate was more relevant to their success as President of the United States than gender or race.[2]
