Does this Crisis echo the Glorious Revolutuon?

Denial is more than just a river in Africa.

The average age of the Senate was in the high 50s during the 1950s, so again, the GIs didn't take over until the end of the 1950s.  And that's ignoring the fact that the senior legislative positions are the more powerful ones.

And even if we set aside, you know, facts, there is a generation between Idealist and Civic that gets a say in the matter.  Remember, the theory states that in 4Ts, Prophets lead, Nomads manage, and Heroes follow orders, while Artists stay at home and STFU.

-- but l don't want Bernie to stay home & STFU
Nancy, otoh- past time to retire bitch

It's the cycle of life, man. 

-- l wouldn't be surprised if the Millies took over as early as 2024, esp if this Crisis is similar to the Civil War. The Transcendentals all got thrown out of power. The Millies could very well ahem, drain the swamp, throwing out both Boomers & Xers, as well as any remaining Silents. Except for Bernie, that is.

The Transcendentals got thrown out of power AFTER the Civil War AND early Reconstruction. In our 4T the analogous years won't come until the 2030s.

I don't get why Marypoza is so down on Nancy Pelosi. She's a dedicated progressive. Not as perfect as Bernie, but who is? Certainly not that deceived young thing from Hawaii.

-- l want a new direction. She don't. l'll bet you voted 4 her too

ps, Tulsi is a Millie. The wave of the future
