Politics is like fashion

We really do become our parents or at least we paraphrase them, imitate and morph into them at some point in our life.  What I find humorous about 'young adults' is their tendency to know everything - I am guilty as charged!  The young tend to get caught up in trends, in part, because it defines their generation. Political trends advocated by youth groups could easily be compared to fashion trends: a remix of the old with the new gives us the best of both worlds. It provides us with a sense of unity; it connects us with the past and the present. Essentially, it provides us with common ground. In our rapidly changing world it is refreshing to find a common denominator. Part of aging is realizing that there is so much to be learned from the past.
