“Uh...correct me if I’m wrong, Dick, but isn’t Obama a baby boomer himself?”

Obama was born in 1961, and I don’t consider him a boomer (some people use technical classifications of generations that might encompass 1961 into the boomer generation, but I personally think it’s misleading). The main type of boomers that Morris is referring to are those who were born in the 1940s and entered their twenties in the 1960s.

You don’t actually get to make up your own definitions for well accepted terms. Sorry, but Dick Morris is wrong. Again. Obama is a boomer.

Baby boomer years

[RobbyS]

Boomers are those born between 1946 and 1966. Obama was 20-years old when Ronald Reagan was elected. So he was part of that age group that brought the Clintons to power. He was 31 when Bill was elected president. A younger contemporary. one might say.
