If this country continues on the same path when i graduate college later this decade I won't being staying in it. The Older vs Younger Generation fighting seems to be getting worse and worse and its starting to hurt the nations economy. I also don't see how the US will retain all 50 states in my lifetime , I do think it will shrink and maybe that's for the better....I'm not alone on this either...
Well later this decade as we start to become older , like around 25/6 we with and then the older Generations will start to see a power shift...
Fortunately, as kids mature, the vote in a different way. As Churchill said, if you aren't a liberal when you are young, you have no heart. I you aren't a conservative when you are older, you have no brain.

That may be true for the past , but my Generation has access to more Info and Faster thus I don't see that really happening. Your Generation grew up without the Internet for the most part or easy Access to Info. My Generation seems to want to correct the mistakes of your generation... This can seen in various places across the US and I don't think its a Fad.
He can't win the general election because he's not insane enough for the Tea Party base (believes in climate change, appointed a Muslim judge).
I don't think he can win again in New Jersey, because he declared war on the middle class here, and on our public education, and everyone that I know, republican or democrat, hates him.
He's in a lose, lose. I personally love his attitude, but abhor his policies. I've always been proud to be a part of New Jersey's thriving, hard working middle class, and I'd be proud to see him go as Governor.

The quotation usually attributed to Churchill is, "If you're not Liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not Conservative when you're 35, you have no brain." However, the attribution is false. There is no record of Churchill ever speaking these words, and it is highly unlikely that he would have because Churchill himself did precisely the opposite. He entered politics as a Conservative and was a Conservative at age 25. He switched to the Liberal Party at age 29 and was a Liberal at age 35. (He returned to the Conservatives at age 49.) Also, his beloved wife, Clementine, was a life-long Liberal, and Churchill would hardly have delivered such an indirect insult to her.
It should also be remembered that "Liberal" and "Conservative" are the proper names of British political parties and do not translate precisely to the left and right wings of the American political spectrum. Being a conservative in socialist Britian today would be about equal to being a Democrat in the United States, our "liberal" party. We don't have anything as left wing as their Liberal party.

Sorry, but the generation of 25/26 these days are the kids of 16/17 years old 20 years ago.
I even see "kids' today that are 30ish, are less mature than 18 year olds from 30-40 years ago.
By the time the newer generation matures they'll be older and greyish.
