In response to In Reponse to Bill Kristol:
I greatly admire Bill and understand his point may have been about making policy out of the fluctuating nature of polls and views of younger generations. Still, here are just a few fun facts:
– William F. Buckley published “God and Man at Yale” at age 25
– Buckley founded “National Review” at age 29
– Irving Kristol began writing for “Commentary” magazine at age 26
– Marco Rubio elected to Florida House of Representatives at age 28
– Paul Ryan elected to U.S. House of Representatives at age 28
– Marcus Luttrell served during “Operation Iraqi Freedom” and earned the Purple Heart at age 29
– Phyllis Schlafly was a researcher for the American Enterprise Institute at age 22
(Note: Ages are give or take one year because in most cases months of founding/work aren’t listed)
