The boomer age group did go for Nixon in 72 by 6 points over McGovern. And looking at the chart it also appears that with the exception of 1976, the boomer generation has gone for the Republican in every presidential election since.
There are a lot of myths that younger generations have about the boomer generation. Those myths were created by the Hollywood maggots with their fake history about the 60s.
The vast majority of us boomers were hard working family types, not the drug addled hippies Hollywood would have you believe.
Clarity bump. There were a few of us conservatives on my campus who formed up a Young Americans for Freedom chapter in the year I left. We had star-spangled eyes and knew what American Exceptionalism was worth. Those leftist pukes could spew their Marxist rage all they wanted, but we had their number all the way. We even infilled an SDS chapter that some puke came down from Chicago to form up and shake out a new SDS chapter on our conservative campus with "radicalization" confrontations with the cops. Didn't happen, wonder why? Losers.
