2. Never trust anyone under 55, that's what I say!

Actually, it's thrilling to see young people get involved like this. Glad to see the Young Republican shitheads are a minority after all! Us Gene McCarthy volunteers salute you!

6. I am in the establishment age group, and the stakes concern you generation

more than anyone else, because you will have to pay for the consequences of OUR mistakes

The Iraq War
Jobs
Education
Social Security
Medicare
THE SUPREME COURT

A lot is at stake, go for it

5. If more young people had voted in 2000 and 2004, the Repubs

might not have been able to rig the elections.

8. Um. How is Obama not the establishment. Young people just bought a well-advertisized brand.

irrelevant

You imply Obama is the establishment, I respectfully disagree

I think he represents change to the young

Another important note is how strong Edwards came, that also represents something different in my view from the conventional DNC view
