My Fearless Political Prediction For 2025 AD
My fearless political prediction for 2025 AD is that the number of self-identified individuals who will claim that they voted for John F. Kerry in 2004 will swell by 20 million individuals--despite the passing on of the World War II and Korean War age cohorts.

4. More Like The Ones Who Want To Hide Their Real Actions n/t
I was thinking more along the lines of those Vichyites and politically apathetic wartime French folk who nodded their heads and agreed with Charles de Gaulle's cynical 1960's-era myth making that "we were all in the Resistance" during World War II.

I suspect that twenty-odd years from now, asking Grandma or Grandpa who they voted for in 2004 or why they chose not to vote that year is going to make over half of that age group very uncomfortable.

5. A comedian in 1975 used to ask his audience, "Who voted for Nixon?"
No one ever raised their hand. It was really funny.
