Possibly, impaired reasoning and the allure of hoping they will never have to work and be held accountable. Maybe...the allure of forever adolescence promised by the commie/socialists?

When I compiled a list of those who’d do a good job as executor of my estate I chose the oldest.*All* would have done a good job...that is,would have done their level best...but with age (usually) comes a certain wisdom.Kids of 18...or 25...or even 30....typically don’t have the wisdom that many (but not all) folks of my age have.They should have asked “why did Romney carry the 55 to 65 age group by such wide a margin?”

The “new normal”. Pouring out of the marxist propaganda matrix, dystopian drones advance the agenda

Brainwashing works.

Ask the Soviets, the Germans under the Nazis, etc.

That’s an easy question to answer: they were brainwashed by the government Marxist educational system for 13 to 17+ years and thus have no capacity to think - or even function at any level above that of their cellphones, video games or popular TV shows like “American Idol”.

It’s easier to vote for a living than work for a living.

Frankly because, the GOP’s aren’t any better.

BRING BACK AMERICAN JOBS.

For crying out loud. The GOP is busy relocating American jobs elsewhere and then cannot figure out why people are not voting for them?

Maybe it somewhat reinforces the saying that if you’re 20 and not liberal you have no heart, and if you’re 40 and not conservative you have no brains.

Public schools may be horrible. But they’re no more horrible than the parents have allowed them to become. When children become moronic, or amoral, or criminal adults, the ultimate responsibility rests with them, and with the parents who raised, or didn’t raise the.

Because they’re the youth and haven’t had time to figure out the facts of life.

Every kid pictured in that photo of Obama in front of the crowd, is the product of dysfunctional, ignorant, lazy, stupid, and/or absentee parents.
