If my parents were still alive they would love it.

That is the heart of the problem. The older voters (who would vote for someone like McCain) are dying off and being replaced on the voting rolls by teenagers (who will most likely vote for a rock star like Obama).

I've recommended this before, but if you get a chance, get/borrow a copy of "Wild in the Streets," a 1969 movie about just this issue. I think it was a prophetic movie in its message about the decline of informed rationalism, and the rise of blind emotionalism in decision making - on a national scale.

Please do not lump TEENAGERS (like me) in with BRAIN DEAD LIBERALS. You just insulted TEENAGERS who are not BRAINWASHED in the GOVERNMENTAL SOCIALIST INDOCTRINATION CENTERS (fka: Public School!!)
