Young Americans are turning against Barack Obama and Obamacare, according to a new survey of millennials, people between the ages of 18 and 29 who are vital to the fortunes of the president and his signature health care law.

The most startling finding of Harvard University's Institute of Politics: A majority of Americans under age 25--the youngest millennials--would favor throwing Obama out of office.

Not so fast.
There is no indication that they abandoned their belief in socialism or elitism,

just that Obama was not “the one” to implement it correctly,
and that Obamacare probably wasn’t completely centralized enough to work.

As I’ve said on FR for years, and I just heard Limbaugh say....

It will be easy to buy them back with student loan relief Groupons.

Toward the bottom:

The IOP report issued today said: "This is not to say that young Americans are rejecting politics, the role of government and the promise of America more generally. They are sending a message to those in power that for them to re-engage in government and politics, the political process must be open, collaborative and have the opportunity for impact -- and not one that simply perpetuates well-worn single issue agendas."

"not rejecting the role of government" = thinking the government is the answer to problems

I prefer the term “D-generation” to “millennials”.

“and that Obamacare probably wasn’t completely centralized enough to work.”

I’ve heard a couple of liberals say things like, “their mistake was involving the insurance companies,” or “they just did it wrong. They need to re-do it right this time.” Forty percent of the population is liberal and will vote that way until they die. (Even if it’s their votes indirectly killing them.)
