I wonder how many middle class kids did vote for Obama.
There were a TON of upper middle class, middle class, white kids at those Obama rallies and MANY of them were college students.
In 2008, probably a lot (they thought he would fix the economy and bring back opportunity); in 2012, not so much (many). Unfortunately they didn’t show up for his opponent either; he was too rich and too white and too male.
The amount of voter apathy I’ve seen for decades is creepy; ignorant people just assume they have no control over anything and just bitch & moan without voting. Many people (anyone who didn’t vote against him) deserve Obama.
