3. Not the Millennials I know.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]And I know quite a few. They're educated, informed, and very involved.

I also think the current stats on religion - where they're dropping out because of bigotry, intolerance, suppression of women, and churches' support for GOP policy positions - speak to their awareness and involvement.

It's up to the Democrats to make their case compelling and arouse the passion of those Millennials who haven't yet become involved: Get them angry at the TeaGOP for hateful regressive policies, give them hope that things can still be changed and a liveable planet saved, and make them want to fight back. I really think Bernie can do that.

No, Millennials aren't the problem. They're a major part of the solution.
