I met Bob Weir when I was 16. Some people that I used to babysit for moved to Montana from NY. Billy was a model and they were really environmentally active. They organized a big protest and Bob Weir showed up for it. So that was cool. I went to Yellowstone National Park with Jon Oates (of Hall and Oates) Jon and his then wife were the baby's god-parents.

I met some pretty cool people back then and firmly planted my "Liberal" roots.

My parents still aren't sure where they went wrong.

On Edit: I was I think 14 when we went into Iraq under Bush 41 too, and that right there felt wrong to me. I remember getting into a big argument with some of the kids during a History Class. I fully opposed that war too, and I think it was the first independent political choice that I made.
