I couldn't wait to vote when I turned 21.

50. Unfortunately, that inability

Or perhaps unwillingness to understand not voting blinds you to what needs to be done in order to get millenials and other non-voters engaged.

As has been said many times by myself and others on here, it doesn't matter right now that not voting was a poor decision with a stupid rationale behind it--it matters that we listen to and understand why those who didn't, chose not to. If we cannot do that, we will not get their votes in 2016.

Many people on this board have a hard time seeing the world from the perspective of a "disillusioned" young voter (quotes because the truly disillusioned vote anyways, without hope of change). Unfortunately, we are dependent on your understanding in order for the party to address the needs and concerns of younger voters. I'm not going to go into how to address them (it has already been said, many times in many threads), but I would like to implore you to work on your inability to understand them. If you and other Democrats continue to dismiss their reasoning and instead write them off without truly attempting to see things from their eyes, we will have no hope in 2016.
