Our 2 baby boomer presidents were failures in different ways.  Gross incompetence and squandered opportunities.  I don't have high hopes for the 3rd.  How do you feel?

Meh. It's not like the seven GI presidents were any good.

I think the boomer generation might find a way to live forever by draining the life force of younger generations. They have already done the economic equivalent of that, so why stop here?

If new science is proven I imagine blood farming will begin in the third world.

Personally boomers are the worst generation, millennials are next for other reasons.

No Millennials are the BEST generation, hands down.

How do we know what generation our next president's successor will be from?

How is Obama not a baby boomer? End of the baby boom, yes, but I don't see how he'd be Gen X

Pretty safe bet we'll never have a Silent Generation President (four have been rejected now...Mondale, Dukakis, Kerry, and McCain).

I mean, my ideal President wouldn't be a baby boomer, but generation is fairly low on my list of considerations.

Also anyone who's young enough to be considered "my generation" (not in the media sense; I don't actually identify with people born in 1980) isn't old enough to be President. It's not like I can "identify" in a generational sense with Paul Ryan or Marco Rubio, or even someone that age with my politics.

Still, it's a little weird for someone on one of the outer edges of a cohort to be as much of a ride-or-die shill for it as BRTD is for Millennials. You don't generally hear people born in 1961 waxing rhapsodic about Baby Boomer Culture.
