Poll question: Poll on ages of DUers (don't know if it's been done, haven't seen it_ |
|
I've seen numerous posts from what appear to be students, which is extremely encouraging! And of course from many 'old pharts' like myself, but it occurs to me it might be interesting to get a rough cross-section of the chronological members. So jump right in if you care to. :D

10. Turned 40 last week. Boo hoo! |
|
I'm in that weird year 1964 when we were the last of the Baby Boomers and the first of the GenXers.
No wonder I am so conflicted!

Turned 40 a couple months ago. I side with the GenXers myself. I have way more in common with them than the boomers.

18. 60. I've earned my right to be a leftist curmudgeon. |

I'm glad some of the young wolves here are showing us their teeth. (To borrow a line from Steinbeck).

20. This has been done several times |
|
It always shows a normal distribution (bell-shaped curve) with a mean in the low 40's. By the way, I am 57.

I'll be 21 in just a couple of months. This election inspired me to switch to a Political Science major in college and has motivated me to become very active in the Democratic party. It's amazing how much more I care now than 4 years ago. I was only 16 at the time but it wasn't until I went to college and started really paying attention to the world around me that I realized just how important it is to spread the Democratic word and to really take action. My support of John Kerry has been my first major priority in the short tenure of my political activism :)
GOTV!!!

If Kerry takes it and I live another week I'll make it to 60. Boomer and first time pres voter. First time I ever voted was to get Davis out of Sacto -- too bad it put the Terminator in.
