I'm 26 and find this poll to be absurd. It helps push a stereotype of lazy, listless youth that is easily sold by propaganda and anything that might force them to earn an honest days' pay. I've been in the job force since I was 19 and I pay my taxes and my rent. I'm a Republican because I recognize which party respects my desire to be independant and proud of myself, not the one that wants everyone to think they can't do it and you don't have to work because someone will do it for you.

Some quotes by Winston Churchill (found online):

The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong. -
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
Show me a young Conservative and I'll show you someone with no heart. Show me an old Liberal and I'll show you someone with no brains.

Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy.

A liberal is a man with both feet planted firmly in the air.

... it is the people who control the Government, not the Government the people.

Young voters are following this election closely and nearly 8 in 10 say they definitely plan to vote.

Sure. Right after they clean up their rooms.

There was a recent poll here in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois of all cemeteries and those interred. The results show that the dearly departed will be voting for Kerry and local Democrats in record numbers!

Poll Gives Kerry Big Lead Among Voters Under 30

Deceptive headline. These aren't voters - they're "adults"... 1/4 of them are not even registered to vote.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...my generation (I'm 23) is quite possibly the most ignorant generation in the history of this planet.

Sure Kerry has a 6 point lead in polls taken of my generation...but you know what, the ones who chose Kerry are the same ones who are too lazy or just won't go vote so it really doesn't matter.

I watched Barrymore's show. Ratio of Dim to Republican interviewees was about 10 to 1. Typical.

Who the F**k cares about Drew Barrymore - this is the bullsh*t that fills young people's heads (i'm a tail-end Xer).

Drew Barrymore is an irrelevant, over hyped product of nepotism with a 9th grade education.

She can't undersatnd the problem because she is part of the problem.

MTV is the worst thing in the world. It's rock the vote program is a phony, contrived, doublespeak initiative designed to create liberal voters out of the already brainwashed hordes of Generation Y zombies who tune into it religiously.

Young kids don't vote in elections because they are too concerned about who to vote for on American Idol.

"Deceptive headline. These aren't voters - they're "adults"... 1/4 of them are not even registered to vote."

A hugh (sic) majority of young people (including 18+) get their nightly news from "The Comedy Channel's 'The Daily Show'".

A funny and entertaining show, but it's SO in the tank for Kerry and the left. John Stewart and his writers, like Leno and his writers which include some former Democrat speech writers, really crank up the bias as elections near.

I have to turn it off at times knowing that kids love it's biting humor, and because the humor is cutting, it HAS to based in truth. Sad.

The average 18 year old be turned off by the voter pamplets and other mail they will be recieving, and then just think... They will have to got down to the polling place that is run by really, really old people. This age group generally tries to stay away from old people doing boring things like running polling places.

Perhaps the most interesting numbers in the survey are that 1 in 4 of the respondents were not registered to vote and that 1 in 5 of registered voters were still undecided as to who to vote for.

They are polling NONVOTERS? That's what it takes to get Kerry a lead. I am LMAO at this.
