I was thinking more about Nam, where many were lost that didn't need to be and where a nation was abandoned because the will of the people was destroyed by the press which were mostly all leftists and boomers, especially in the print press and at that time people read the news.

The country was divided because Young Men were being DRAFTED and had no idea why they were fighting a War far from HOME in the Jungles of Vietnam...

===========================================

You are just wrong. The anti-war movement was at its peak 1968-71. It was founded by the SDS and their ilk...red-diaper babies, not a single boomer in the bunch. The oldest boomers were in their early twenties and not running the media (any form) or even significantly represented. I'd like you to name a few of these powerful media boomers from 1968....No don't bother. There were none. And, sorry, but your wishing things so does not make them so.

You really do not know what you're talking about. Have a good night.
