It's not easy to get young people engaged in politics, no matter how much it may affect them down the line....

It's even harder when they have an offer to play football for Alabama or Texas...

It's not easy to get any people, regardless of age, engaged in politics, no matter what serious constitutional and democratic threats are involved.

If there's one thing we seen over the last decade, it's that the average American cannot see past his or her immediate future. If eggs cost $5 a dozen instead of $3, that's an issue, regardless of any bigger and more important issues hanging over the nation's future.

We'll see if the same nearsightedness applies when it's gas that cost $5 a gallon, instead of $3.

Remember when Americans were outraged and demanded that the President resign because he lied to them? Nixon seems like a happy memory now.
