I don’t want to fight with you, but 98% of demographers agree with me. Based on this guy’s premise, Ted Cruz is almost certainly the next president, unless someone not on the radar comes out of nowhere.

“I first heard about this pattern at a lecture on the work of Neil Howe and William Strauss, the co-authors of several books on generational theory and generational change in America.”
Howe and Strauss define generations for their purposes based upon a defining event(s). For example, for the G.I. generation it was the twin events of the Great Depression and World War II. For baby boomers That defining event is Vietnam. So their definition of when the generation begins for baby boomers (1943) and ends (1960) does not exactly correlate with the surge in births that demographers use to refer to the “baby boom.”
