May I remind all of us that the Author and Writer of that great document of freedom we honor as the Declaration of Independence, outlining the principles and philosophy of liberty defended by patriots with their very lives, was written by a young, 33-year-old American in the Year 1776?

The so-called "Left" categorizes, labels, identifies and classifies men and women of all ages in order to demean, criticize and ostracize them. In the America of the 1600's and 1700's free persons of all ages participated in the "spirit of liberty" observed by Burke, and later by Tocqueville. Those great Americans did not place people in "buckets" as did Clinton, nor seek to shut down their voices, as do the current Progressive movement leaders.

Enough of the foolish and divisive elitist identification of individuals, in order to form them into some collective group for purposes of limiting their discourse or their participation in the cause of liberty!

There is no comparison between a typical 33yo today and even 25 years ago—let alone 250 years ago.
