Sooner or later, you'll be surprised what becomes a "good" memory if only because what you remember isn't what happened but that YOU happened.

Or maybe you'll be different. Has to happen to someone at some point.

Who can say? 🤷‍♂️

People my age are currently "nostalgic" for hosewater, leaded gasoline, secondhand smoke and the worst interior design trends after shag carpeting. Anything is possible.

That's not even me saying I *like* the sound of it, it's essentially weaponizing "Millennial Entitlement" as a political identity. But it would work.

Whether it's true or fair or even deliverable; "America made a promise of _____ to you, it was delayed/denied, but that denial stops NOW and you're getting what you're owed" would be a *powerful* message for any figure to run on if they can find a way to do so.

The other, unspoken, half of the "Morning again in America" pitch was "This was the way TV/movies told you like was supposed to be when you were young, 'something' kept it from you, but NOW we're back on track and you're finallly going to get it!"

Well, for one thing, I didn't use a TV show that never resembled anything close to the actual city it was supposedly set in as the point of reference by accident 😉

Nobody really wants to go back to a reality. They want their memories and dreams to come forward to them.

By numbers; Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, Obama and Trump are the actual "Boomer's Choice" era Presidents, and Clinton was their first real "This is our guy, with our team, representing our generation and values" champion. It's hard to explain in retrospect what a huge deal that was at the time.
