The Atlantic: Why Do Millennials Love Bernie?

[Quixote1818]

What I find interesting about this video is that it was made before the General Election and what the fellow warned about as far as Obama voters staying home, occurred. Yes they are pieces of shit for staying home but maybe Sanders will bring those 4 million voters back out again even if we do lose a few moderates? I have no idea what will happen but he makes some interesting points.

On the other hand he warns that if Sanders were to get elected and hit a brick wall getting anything meaningful through, they might not come back out again. However, that was before Trump who I think has put a real fear in them about the GOP.

2. Why do 40-50 year olds?

This shit is so played out, seriously.

3. Because they think status quo politics hasn't worked for them?

Because they can look and see how wages have stagnated since the 70s?
Because they have noticed that politicians will only do lip service to changing things until they get pushed into it?
Because they are the generation where the facade of decades of status quo politic has finally collapsed and they can't' pretend otherwise?
Because when they hear socialism, they don't turn off their brains and keep listening?

Just a guess. Maybe watch the video.

5. Everything you list is a result of voter apathy allowing GOP power and obstruction.

4. Free tuition and education debt relief promises

They don't understand that those are just slogans that will never become law
