You can make up everything you want but it would sure make it hard to recognize common terms for discussion. boomers are born 1946 to 1964.
http://www.census.gov/Press-Release/www/releases/archives/facts_for_features_special_editions/006105.html
In 2006, the oldest of the baby boomers, the generation born between 1946 and 1964, will turn 60 years old. Among the Americans celebrating their 60th will be our two most recent presidents, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Other well-known celebrities reaching this milestone include Cher, Donald Trump, Sylvester Stallone and Dolly Parton. To commemorate this occasion, the Census Bureau has compiled a collection of facts relating to, perhaps, our most celebrated generation
Actually, nobody has any trouble distinquishing boomers from other generations. Arbitrarily seperating infants born during the four years 41-45 of the war from those born after the war based on yearly birth rate rather than on the fact that they all grew up, went to school and came of age in the same cultural/political post war era because the census bureau says so tells you nothing about those people as a group.
Are generational cohort trends a function of shared culture and history or a function of bureaucratic data gathering? Somehow I’m thinking that the census bureau definition has little utility in understanding actual people and perspectives compared to the social science and advertising model of generational cohorts.
But you stick to your archaic and legalistic bureaucratic beliefs. It must be so because the government says so.
Yes, using official definitions is easier for the rest of us than relying on your redefining generations by putting historical figures into your own made up categories based on whether you like them or not.
Boomers, the last great warrior generation, producing 9.4 million veterans and still fighting wars.
Go boomer Palin for 2012.
Here’s one way: Have the most heavily republican states go first, the lightest go last. So if a state is 80% republican, they still can have some incentive to hit a higher figure — they get to be first in line on the primary schedule.
