Clinton and GWB were among the oldest of baby boomers. Obama is among the youngest. The two ends of that spectrum are very different. I could see that maybe what would appeal age-wise is someone approximately Obama's age but with a polarly different background and vision. Someone who is clear and inspirational.
Lately, Jindal's been doing real well. jmho
You are correct. The article breaks it off at 1961...I suppose to make its
thesis valid.
Technically, you’re right. But I was born in ‘59 and STILL don’t feel like a Baby Boomer.
I've seen both the '61 and '64 referenced. It hardly matters since Cruz (who is roughly the same age as I am) is firmly in the middle of the Gen X generation, while hitlery, fauxcahontas and jebba the bush are clearly not, regardless of the year used.

the article is playing fast and loose with the generational boundaries. They use the term Generation Jones for the later part of the Baby Boom plus a little beyond, 1954-1965.
The name comes from the phrase “keeping up with the Joneses”
The 50s and 60s gave us quality, groundbreaking music and cinema but that was probably inevitable given the rise of postwar technology and affluence.
In most ther things they have given us decades of that over which a world war was fought: unbridled state power. Many of them claimed to be in favor of freedom but that was a transparent ruse.
They got theirs, now they are happy to take yours. Unfortunately, they suckered many into their way of thinking including Obama.
All I can say is, the next prez better be an American patriot, Christian, and republican — and have the papers to prove it. No punk-ass liberal clown with psych issues.
that’s right I was born in 62 and am a baby boomer
