Good news for us (statistic)

It's not just access to information. Young people can change their minds. With age, that ability is generally lost. Old people are social democrats. Old people are social democrats (aka democratic socialists) who believe in things like Socialist Security, the minimum wage, government health care, etc. They believe FDR saved us from the Great Depression, that WWII was a holy war for Justice, Freedom, and Everything Good, and that the feds were the only thing that saved us from monopolistic robber barons who forced children to load 15 tons of coal a day for negative pay, thus getting further in debt each day.

These opinions will not change. Old people cannot change their opinions. Thus, we basically rely on the oldsters' lack of concern for candidates actual policies and concern for superficial factors like how likeable the candidate is, how much literature he sends them, and how often he came and personally talked to them in their town and shook their hands. Luckily, we have a likeable candidate who is sending them lots of literature and working very very hard having lots of local town hall meetings.

Lolz...

Despite the realities that may be evident among the Stereotypes of old and new. The collectivist mentality and polarization of the stereotypes is to be eliminated by all individuals, if our future is to be brighter. Stop promoting it. Yes, we all know it's hard not to do.

While I may agree with you, how many elderly and senior living homes have you canvassed or offered a presentation to? They have not only been the most open minded, but my easiest converts in supporting peace and the future generations.

alot has happened since 2008. 4 years has given the younger public another 4 years to grow and reach the voting age. Let's not have our grandpa's decide the future of our generation. Let's do this.

You buy into the divide and conquer crap too eh?

What he said is both inaccurate and not justified.

The retiring crowd did not turn people into debt slaves. The Khazars did that. Study Some History, and quit promoting the rich vs. poor; men vs. women; red vs. blue; black vs. white; and the old vs. young dividing memes.

Sounds good to me, as long as the presidential preference by age in Iowa is representative of the US in general. I don't have the exact figures handy, but if the youngsters in Iowa decide the election, RP wins!
