    Wow, that was pretty cool. Knowing that the young people are really thinking this through and wanting something different that what we have had, and willing to register to vote in an attempt to do something about it....good for them.

      They are definitely a little naive. But that is good. We should be naive at that age. LOL

      They do make some sense though. I hope they retain that spirit as they grow older and see the things in this world.

      Good one gm.

      I disagreed with much of what was brought up by the students. Well, even students have different perspectives. I just hope that the rest of my generation isn't as socialistic as it seems some times (I didn't really notice that attitude among these kids, which is good) because I really would rather not see the United States take that path... something a bit closer to modern liberalism or progressivism is more to my liking then socialism.

        I would have to say, that the next generation is the hope for the future. It appears that they are open to dialog with percieved enemies of the west....I see this as a step in the right direction. I believe there are young people in other countries as well that would prefer dialog over bombs.

        There is way to much misunderstanding of other cultures on both sides of the equation. Governments and media are partially responsible for pounding ideas and images of other cultures into our heads over many years. Definitions of liberalism...conservatism..or socialism sometimes get distorted. One persons view of socialism may differ from another's. I see this on threads all the time when Canada's healthcare system is mentioned.

        In summary....some of these kids can see the future and are willing to take a chance to make a difference. Others just want to follow the old road map to self destruction.

          I saw the end of a Glenn Beck interview with Netanyahu the other night, and it struck me that I actually felt sorry Netanyahu. He goes around telling us what is the correct way in which the world should work. The guy is typical of many, Christian, Jew, Muslim; he could go to every corner of the world and take away nothing. He is so convinced that his way is the only way.
