Why Is Politics Still a Retirement Reunion?
Why is Congress so freaking old? And why do Democrats keep dragging Obama out every election like young voters are going to lose their minds? He was the fresh face once. That doesn’t make him the fresh face forever.
Then comes Hillary Clinton, telling everybody what they should think and how they should vote. Why do politicians keep assuming yesterday’s big names are today’s inspiration? Familiar doesn’t mean exciting.
And Bernie Sanders? The guy from the meme, sitting in a folding chair with his winter coat, mask, and mittens? That was funny, but are we seriously treating it like a youth outreach strategy?
Where are the new voices? Where are the people who understand what younger generations are dealing with? Every election feels like the same reunion tour, and we’re supposed to pretend we’ve never heard the songs.
Come on, man. Are we choosing our future or booking another appearance from the political antiques roadshow? Am I wrong?
Congress Needs Life Alert, Not Another Term
