Quick Hits - June 18th: Young Republicans, Identity Politics, and A New American Dream
I'm heading out shortly to tape for GritTV with Laura Flanders. We're doing a one-hour panel on the youth vote and a half-hour segment on Youth to Power. Be back online this afternoon.
- At Campus Politico, Ben Adler notes that summer break is putting a crimp in plans to register and organize students.
- At AlterNet, Courtney Martin talks about growing up a Millennial and how race and gender play differently on the campaign trail for younger voters.
- Republicans have a new blog dedicated to reaching "Generation Next" online. It involves crayons.
- Salon notes rising youth turnout, and while they are still skeptical, admit that young voters could be a factor in November.
- Barack Obama has 1 million supporters on Facebook.
- The "American Dream" as our parents knew it is dead, argues Anya Kamenetz, but she's got some suggestions on what a new American Dream might look like. Long live the American Dream!
