Baby Boomers And Political Effects - Reason Behind How America Is What It Is Today!


Firstly one has to understand all about baby boomers and who exactly they are. These are actually those who were born within the period starting from 1946 to 1964. The name baby boomers came in because of the high birth rate in this period. As a statistical fact, there was an addition of 78 million births in that period.

Nowadays our very own baby boomers are turning into their middle age. Today or so they turn 50 years in age as frequently as every 7 seconds.

The birth period of these baby boomers as they are called is set in the period of high social strife of civil rights protest and the gory scene of the cold war. This has resulted in them having distinct cultural and political patterns in their characters. This is the very baby boomer generation which made the United States of America what it is today. It was the baby boomer generation who paved and led the way on to a modern living. The fact that these boomers came of age in a period of high social tension like the civil rights protest made them well aware of the political and social tensions that the country faced then.

Who were the leading protesters in the Vietnam issue and also in the case of the draft? Baby boomers! Not just that but also the fact that this was the very generation which revolutionized the rock and roll music like the Beatles, Motown Sounds and the Beats.

The time of the baby boomers was when the Americans emerged as super powers and their main enemies were the socialists and communists, one can not fail to notice how these people's very view on governmental policies, military were so different from that of the rest of the world.

Even today the baby boomer heroes of yesteryear continue to protest against social malfunctions such as unemployment off late. This is mainly because of the fact that during their period unemployment was not at all heard of, provided one is Caucasian and one is not unwilling to work.

Now the baby boomers form a large part of the industrial, cultural, academic and political leadership in the US. Actually George Bush and Bill Clinton, two very important presidents in America's front, were indeed born in the period of the baby boomers.

Clearly one can notice that it is the baby boomers are the one leading nations today. Looking in at the administration of the Clinton and the Bush period one can notice the common ideologies that was implemented. Both their schemes concentrated on civil rights and more emphasis was given to reformation of the military.

One also observes that the two presidents have also been working to increase the rate of the economy of their country, in which they have succeeded well too. They have tried to improve the standard of living. They have always been working to make the life of every American easier to live. This is mainly because of the strong cultural and civic influence they had in their childhood.

So whenever you are treated well and you are given your fundamental and civil rights on due and are respected you should think of all those baby boomers who have made it possible right from their era. The baby boomers have well laid down the way to a better living thus making the United States of America one of the most sought after places to live in today.
