Who here is between 18 and 26? (The secret behind the Ron Paul Revolution)

This age group is highly polarized, from complete materialistic self-absorbed sleepwalkers to very old and wise compassionate souls. The even younger group are smart as hell. Generation Z... the last generation? hehe
 
I'm 42, 1965 was noted once as the first year of generation X. I hope your generation is not as complacent as mine.

Not to worry, slamhead, they're not. I chalk it up to a change in educational policies. Schools used to teach kids "knowledge" but because of the pace of change once the computer age kicked it, at some point along the line this changed to teaching kids "how to learn." The end result is that this generation of youth was never asleep, while the rest of us had to wake up from complacency first.

I'm expecting the Establishment will be in for a SHOCK as this generation, who's one of the best-educated IMO, is not only smart and skeptical, but has also been taught from the time they were toddlers that their opinion matters. It's a big change from the "kids should be seen but not heard" mentality that earlier generations grew up with.

I think it explains why people I know who've been in politics for decades say they've never seen anything like this before.
