Dear anela1111,
I am sorry but this statement does not describe a demographic:
"Give it 20 more years when all the 60+ crowd riddled with there cancer and conventional treatment finally die off, you know that same group of people that vote according to how much pigment a person has."
Anymore than:
""Plantation mentality"?, "Racists"? I'd like an answer, Seems kinda strange if your all a bunch of liberal pot smoking hippies.
But your NOT."
It does describe a bitterness - and I'm sorry to hear it from anyone. Whether it's anela1111 NOW - or the throngs that sacrificed their lives FIGHTING and PROTESTING - Vietnam, Nixon, etc.
Believe it or not your questions are as pertinent as they were in the 60's - 70's - 80's. And I am GLAD to hear them!
I want the answers as much as you - your delivery needs work as ours did!
"What was life like when you were a 20 something anything like it is now for our young people? Do you think they have any security?" Personally - "project" poor - scared of a draft, which was a lack of choice if I lived or died - scared of coming home to "baby killer,etc." You seen the movies - like our fathers from WWII, Korea - we don't talk about it. Watch "Gran Torino"!
The "people" you hold responsible are as scared, confused and lost as the children and grandchildren they brought into this world.
