Precisely what I was driving at, Joe....Too many people "want" to believe that this current group is hopenchangy for the good ....but they aren't either reading, nor paying attention to anything that smacks of being political. "If we don't see, hear, or speak of it, it isn't happening, is it?" Personally, I'm not so sure it's the "old" people, certainly not if they were alive during WWII. They lived through a terrible time, and I'm sure they see what's going on today. No, I think it's more the people who were born in the first half of the baby boomers (1946-1956) who were flower children of the 60's-70's who aren't paying attention. Many of the folks who are the same age as Obama are culprits as well....many of the ones who were on the tail end of the boomers, particularly those who were born from about 1959-1965....
