Republicans do better among Generation X

RELATED: Gen Y's attitudes differ from parents'
'When you open a celebrity magazine, it's all about the money and being rich and famous,' says 22-year-old Cameron Johnson of Blacksburg, Va. 'The TV shows we watch — anything from The Apprentice where the intro to the show is the 'money song' — to Us Weekly magazine where you see all the celebrities and their $6 million homes.

Technology and society: Is it really helpful to talk about a new generation of “digital natives” who have grown up with the internet?
Mar 4th 2010 | From The Economist print edition
Totally different from previous generations—or just younger?
THEY are variously known as the Net Generation, Millennials, Generation Y or Digital Natives. But whatever you call this group of young people—roughly, those born between 1980 and 2000—there is a widespread consensus among educators, marketers and policymakers that digital technologies have given rise to a new generation of students, consumers, and citizens who see the world in a different way. Growing up with the internet, it is argued, has transformed their approach to education, work and politics."
