Connecting With American Youth

American Prospect has an article in the October 1 issue (available now online) advising candidates how to connect with America's Youth. [link via Hamster.] Here's one of the suggestions:

14. Learn tolerance from the young. This is the most tolerant generation in American history. We need to enact legislation recognizing domestic partnerships, preventing hate crimes, restoring rights to immigrants and getting rid of laws like the so-called PATRIOT Act that invite censorship, invasion of privacy and a denial of our liberties.

We agree....and we note that the author referred to "preventing hate crimes" rather than "punishing hate crimes more severely." Nice touch.
