Being a college prof, I see firsthand how newly eligible voters view politics. I do think most understand that there’s a fight going on. I think alarmingly few understand the relationship of politicians and elections to that fight.

“But we already voted and it didn’t fix everything!!” is a common sentiment.

So is “We need to do something different, something we’ve never tried before!” — not realizing that full youth participation would be exactly that.
