It amazes me and makes me proud to read this thread.

One day the youth will realize that those who have been here before them,might still have a few answers up their sleeves.

Yeah, the old farts were once "youths", too. There's a reason they managed to survive long enough to become old farts...

Let’s look at this logically…

The country was split 55/45 during the last presidential election. The midterm flipped the other way 55/45 in the congresstional election and in the states. Those independents and moderate democrats that flipped did so before seeing the trouble we face today. They also did so in response to Obama’s policies (mainly Obamacare) and his around-the-world tour bashing America. Since then we’ve seen unemployment rise, the national debt rise, consumer confidence drop and job approval drop.

If the Grey Haired Brigade gets back into the game, coupled with MORE independents going to the right, we’re in for a RUDE AWAKENING for the liberal crowd.

These folks might/will help the people put an end to the threat facing our country. (fingers crossed)

Wow! Generational bashing will not solve the problems this country faces now. Both the young and older generations need to work together, and not point fingers at "who's ruined it" so far. Inattention within both camps' parts allowed this morass. Sorry, no free passes for anyone.
The people outnumber Wall Street and corporate influence. We have the numbers, let's make use of this fact to effect real change.
