Nice charts: Generation Dem
I predict that years from now, pundits will talk about "The Obama Generation" in conjunction with the Millennials, and discuss how he brought them into the Democratic fold. This will be hogwash. We were already trending heavily Democratic, and Obama will just be the first Democratic President to capitalize on this. Obama didn't find us, in a very real sense, we chose him.
(Also note that while young whites are trending more Democratic than in the past, a healthy chunk of this trend can be explained by the fact that the Millennials are also the least white generation in American history.)
