Reply #41: Not all the boomers. [View All]

Of course, I may not be representative of my generation because I was never entranced by Reagan (though grudgingly impressed with his political skills in his first term), I never yearned to be a yuppie, and have always earned below the mean for my age group. And living near the university I see how active and involved young folks are. (Which feels real strange when I say it - in my head, I'm always 29). At least 50% of the volunteers that I've seen at the Obama HQ here are under 25. And that's in a place that is hardly a hotbed of activism.

Please believe, we're not all hopeless.
