Revolution

There IS a revolution coming. Politicians are getting older and more out of touch. They can't keep up with the youth of this country that stands more informed than any ever. That's why this article sent to me by reader A', interested me. Go here and read, it's not long.

What interested me was that the author says that Generation Q is too quiet politically. Interesting idea, but I don't think that's quite correct. He claims that the politicians of today do not hear our voices as we don't cry out for change in public, that Bloggers, like me, our voices aren't being heard.

The revolution will not be televised. Change especially in this bogged down political system does not happen over night. We, Generation Q, know this. We know youth is largely ignored. Whether people like it or not , the internet and instant communication will be our future. The information revolution is in full swing and we've decided to leave behind those who won't adapt. 25 years from now, those of GQ will be leading society.

We're being quiet because we're leaving the current, corrupted mindsets behind. You can't teach an old dog new tricks. We're taking them to the woods, pushing them out of the car and driving off.

Haha, I was gonna put a politically charged song, bu there's this instead.

Note: The song was used in George H. W. Bush's campaign in the 1988 U.S. presidential election until McFerrin (Who was a Democrat) objected, and the campaign desisted.
