Hope to God(dess) Democrats don't drift toward becoming a "Don't walk on my lawn" Party

20. You're writing as if ALL younger voters back Sanders. They don't. You're also ignoring the

YUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE carrot Sanders is dangling in front of them with the talk of not just free college but forgiving ALL student debt, including private-college debt, no matter how large the debt or how able the debtor is to pay it back.

I don't recall any previous generations, when young, expecting that from a Democratic presidential candidate to win their vote.

I don't recall financial windfalls that could run into six figures being part of a Democratic campaign to lure young voters before this one.

I don't think it takes any sort of idealism to vote for a candidate promising you a financial windfall. At least we've never seen it that way when Republicans offered tax breaks to attract not only votes but donations.

IMO we'd be seeing a lot less support for Sanders among younger voters if they weren't being offered this financial inducement.
