38. Well, my sister just graduated HS, so these are my observations of her
and her friends...

They're all pretty liberal. They think Bush is stupid. They support gay rights, are pro-choice and realize the war's a sham and they want the troops home. They're all stereotypical "get drunk in the woods on cheap beer" popular kids, so it'd seem like they'd be most likely to be Republican, but they really don't trust either political party.

However...

None of them are actually interested in politics. They don't think anything they do will help and are generally just apathetic. If we could get them mobilized, then I think we could exact a good deal of change in the country. However, we need to get them interested. My sister is the only registered voter out of the group, but she hasn't voted. I'll probably drag her out though.
