I have a suspicion that it was one of these types that wrote the article. The Boomers represent traditional values to them and they rebel against that and want us out of political influence because we are old fashioned and antiquated in our non-liberal beliefs according to their own standards.
One example of this is that there are younger women asking men to marry them now and there is a new trend to either combine both bride and groom's last name or come up with a completely new one to be addressed by. It's probably from years of feminism wearing away at our young women who now no longer look at it as a blessing to become part of her husband's family, but rather want to continue on in her own autonomy even though she is taking a vow to become one with her husband before God.
Yes, other Boomers like Obama etc. are also radical, but in my opinion he and the others like him weren't raised with the same standards as the majority of Boomers. They are the ones who never grew up or out of their radical hippie phase of the 60’s and early 70’s.
But Obama should’ve been a “disco era” “Boomer”. He would’ve been 10yo around when hippies were at their zenith. He didn’t have any such phase to grow out of.
