The young generation has the power to change history. |
|
If they only knew it.
They could rid this nation of the scourge of Republicanism, just like they did with the Whigs, one hundred and fifty years ago.
They could change the Democratic Party and this nation for the better if they so desired.
The baby boomers are getting older. They will be disappearing soon.

4. I've been saying the same thing for years |
|
Look at the tv. Rachel. Chris Hayes all the under 40 bloggers and reporters who understand what's going on. Now multiply that my millions who don't watch foxnews and are savvy to real information online. The elephant in the room is the under 30 Latinos in the cities and suburbs and myspace who don't vote for reasons too complex to address here. Reach them, teach them, and it's all over. GOP dies and dems move left and stay there.

6. I plan to live much longer thank you |
|
And I'm still kicking and raising the consciousness of those around me. More so than ever before, because as strange as it may seem to some, young people mostly like their elders and turn to them often.

7. Everyone who isn't DEAD has a CHANCE to change history |

The average age of baby-boomers is about 56.
As the average life expectancy of a person surviving to age 56 years of age is to live to 79 we actually aren't going anywhere SOON
And JUST TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, WE A.R.E. planning on keeping JOBS and not retiring and we ARE Willing our estates to the Salvation Army rather than our worthless X generation children.
If they only knew.

8. History, for better or worse, doesn't need changing |
|
It's the future that does.

10. And they have cell phones and so are left out of traditional poll modeling... |
|
Also, how many people don't even have Magic Jack or vonage.
We don't and we are dinks.
