People keep saying this, but I don't hear the same stuff said about Pelosi, Trump, Biden, or Elizabeth Warren. And I don't think any age number is too old, let's see if Bernie (or whoever) still has it during the campaign and then decide. Link to comment

I assure you that traditional conservative values are alive and well among young people. 1 Link to comment

I wasn't talking about right or left, but rather the older generation and how they consume their news vs the younger generation. But polling disagrees with you on how conservative young people are: http://www.people-press.org/2018/03/01/the-generation-gap-in-american-politics/ Quote Millennials are the only generation in which a majority (57%) holds consistently liberal (25%) or mostly liberal (32%) positions across these measures. Just 12% have consistently or mostly conservative attitudes, the lowest of any generation. Another 31% of Millennials have a mix of conservative and liberal views. Among Gen Xers and Boomers, larger shares also express consistently or mostly liberal views than have conservative positions. Silents are the only generation in which those with consistently or mostly conservative views (40%) outnumber those with liberal attitudes (28%). Link to comment

Not how they lean. Link to comment
