Kerry has a mandate with the 30 and under crowd.

[girl gone mad]

He won our votes 55% to 44%.

Can we make him our de facto President?

1. that would be nice

:)
We asked my three year old brother, who's the president
he said john kerry, and hell John Kerry is my president and my personal hero.

2. we are the ones who pushed Kerry to victory in swing states he won

and made it very close in other places like Ohio. that's how much power we have. imagine what we can do if we just got a few hundred thousand more to get out and vote.

then the talk would be about the power of the younger voters and not about the evangelicals.

3. Good lord - I'm taking credit while I still can...

I'll soon be moving into a new demographic. eeeek!

[JI7]

4. i will be moving up also, but i'm hoping as we move up in age

we stick to our values. values that are about doing good and not about hate.

5. can we make that 31 and under?

;-)

6. we could make it democrats, independents, moderates , liberals

all people who identified as being any of those things gave Kerry a majority of the votes.

bush's support came from conservatives, and much of his rise in popular vote is a result of increase in turnout in red states because of the anti gay amendments on the ballots.

7. Do you know the following numbers?

1. How many eligible people under 30 are registered to vote?

2. Of the ones who are registered, how many voted?

No offense - because god love you -- but I don't think your demographic flexed any muscle in this election. And that saddens me in the most immense way. I am almost done here on this earth -- my fight is for you (I don't have any kids to leave behind, so what's it to me after I am dead and gone?). But I don't think your demographic showed up for its own interests.... I hope I am wrong. I have not studied the numbers yet.

8. Not sure how many there are..

or how many registered, but 20 million voted.
