US election 2020: What young Democrats think of Joe Biden [bbc.com]
Joe Biden is about to be crowned as the Democrats' presidential nominee - but what do young millennials and Generation Z voters who support the party think of their candidate?
At the age of 77, the former vice-president is half a century older than the dozen voters we spoke to - yet it's his moderate politics rather than the age gap which has many struggling to get excited.
..........................................
We Democrats should be under no illusion. If we win, we will only because the anger against Trump is high enough. It will not be because Biden has rescued us.
Biden is as uninspiring as you can get in a leader and the leaders in Washington are old wood who do not identify with young voters of America.

Agree, young people are non-conformative, rebellious and rule breakers all over the world. It has been going on for centuries. But data have come out to suggest that progressiveness is not higher in young voters. They have all types just like the grown up middle age voters are. There are conservative, religious, atheists among them.
"the dozen voters we spoke to"
. . . this is laughable . . .LOL
