My Generation (1 Viewer)

[Mainiack11]

Hi, I'm new to the forums. I thought I might start my posting on this forum with a insight I have had into my Generation's politics.

I am a high school student in Vermont. In my school, there are very, very few people (students atleast) who support President Bush. I have observed that my school tends to have a slight liberal lean. As I have observed, the politically vocal students (including myself) are all liberal.

If what I have observed in my school is true elsewhere in the nation, than I think that our country might be able to break out of the conservative, IMHO, invasion that our country has been experiencing since President Bush was elected.

I think that my generation is going to have a bright political future. Atleast from my side of the table.

actually HS kids are a bit more conservative these days but as Churchill allegedly said

If you are not a liberal at age 20 you have no heart but if you are not conservative at age 30 you have no brain

I went to Yale which was crawling with lefties-even though the FEDERALIST society came out of a small circle of conservative friends of mine. However, after I attended my 25th reunion, many of the flaiming lefties were at best moderates or at least cynical-rather than pillowheaded idealists

paying hefty taxes, maybe being the victim of a mugging, and having children tend to disabuse people of the nonsense known as liberalism
