Most young people today are educated, I think that the baby-boomer generation makes up the majority of the Republican voter base.
Not sure which young people you are referring to, but nobody where I live gives a hoot or really truly cares about the election this year. Young people are educated?!?!?! Well if you consider spouting Obama talking points educated. I can't tell you how many people I know that are voting for Obama just based on the fact that now he likes gay marriage. Three of my friends ruled that as some type of accomplishment.
Fact. Most young people are NOT educated, when it comes to politics, or economics, or what goes on in government.edit on 14-8-2012 by jjf3rd77 because: (no reason given)

Romney can make up stuff all day long, but America is no longer as "exceptional" as some would like to believe.

America is the envy of the world.
We have a $16 Trillion GDP.
We are the only remaining military and economic superpower.
American Exceptionalism is alive and well.

Thats what i said. I dont see any other nation at the top of the list for most medals cumulatively won and most GOLD medals won at the Olympics. Nor has any other nation sent a rover to MARS....all in accomplished in the same week.....pretty exceptional in my book.
Some people just hate America no matter what, but their anger is misguided, its our representatives who have led us astray, the US citizenry is still a powerhouse, we just are in need of better guidance so we can once again lead the world down the correct path.edit on 14-8-2012 by phishfriar47 because: (no reason given)

The last report I heard was that Romney was down 9%, that’s all I care about, and that is why Obama will get a second term.
The new voters and younger generation wouldn’t dare vote another war-mongering republican into office…thank God.
LOL, pray tell please tell me why President Obama hasn't withdrawn the troops from Afghanistan?
I also seem to recall Obama stating that he would start withdrawing troops from Iraq on Day 1 of his Presidency. That didn't happen. Then there was Libya.
President Obama hasn't done things any different than President Bush would have. In fact, he's been Bush III.....
As a wise Chinese warlord told me…‘You can only lie to your self’
As an old drunk in Singapore told me one day….‘forgive them for being blind as a bat with no sonar’
And as the Last prophet on this earth will tell you…Run from your Herder, for you was not intended to be sheeple .
'Wake Up'

Way to go turning this into yet another "HATE ON AMERICA" thread!!!
Maybe you broke a record.....Congrats
It is called being realistic... Self evaluation is not a weakness.
Being blind and clueless to your own faults is a serious weakness.
You don't speak for all Americans so get over yourself. And you certainly do not speak for me.
You might want to take your own advice and do some 'self evaluation" because nobody likes a pompous,judgemental ass! Being blind and clueless in not an excuse for your own faults, after all.
