A friend of my wife's from Ed school (she's getting a teaching cert) has a 20ish year old sun who plays guitar in a punk band called Slave Revolt, kid is multiply pierced and tatooed, and --to the horror of his very proper preppy mom (Ms. Porter's School & Wesleyan) -- is a Bush II Republican.
My almost 14 year old daughter may think (for the present) that socialism is ridiculously idealistic, and who knows, maybe she is right, but she has her values in the right place. she was horrified when she discovered than an (older than us) friend of ours had voted for Bush II and thought that there might be something to the Iraq war, gave him what-for. To his credit, he argued back instead of finding her cute.
