The conference could barely fill the first two rows of seats.

The speakers emphasized the important role Millennial voters can play in the political process by getting out the vote, engaging fellow students on campus, and supporting the objectives of the Democratic Party. The conference began July 22 and will end this Saturday.

Emphasizing the importance of Millennial voters in upcoming elections, progressive activists spoke to a nearly empty auditorium at the College Democrats of America annual conference on Friday.

Despite offering a full day of activities, speakers like Julian Castro, and campaigning advice from top political operatives, the College Democrats of America were barely able to fill the first couple rows with young attendees.

The magic words “student loan forgiveness” will have them hanging from the rafters.

This could be a good thing for conservatives.

Liberals tend to have strong support among young people.

But, have young people soured on the actuality of having had a liberal president in Obama all these years? Are they less interested in politics now? Are they less convinced that political activism pays rewards, after seeing the results of an actual liberal dream presidency?

Just some thoughts here. We might be able to get some of these young people to take another look at conservatives points of view.

Either she's to Communist, or not enough. Or maybe they're holding out for free tuition
and don't give a rat's crack about anything else.

College students are finally getting the message. And what brought that on. Support your communists Democrats and try finding a job after graduation.

The DNC is reporting the auditorium was full, as evidenced by their photo of the event...

The truly hilarious thing is that even if the venue was entirely filled with libtards, it would still be empty.

LOL

Do democrats only hire fakes off Craig's list when they think gullible reporters will attend.

Or did they miss this one?

Did the New York Times and Washington Post report hundreds of excited happy students?

The DNC and Hillary HIRE young people to attend their ‘stuff’ because young people don’t give a damn about them or their politics.

It’s a fake as the Oberlin student pretending to be KKK and all the grown men professors cowering in closets in fear...
