Life is like a long, run-on sentence. As the days pass, one’s sentence grows with new, added information. Sometimes, it might even contradict itself. At this point, editing is required. Usually, the editing is merely a minor adjustment, but sometimes it requires a rewrite. In any event, the information gathered to that point is useful.

Naturally, the younger the person,  the less information and the shorter the sentence.

Which political party relies most heavily upon the young to bolster its agenda? Following the logic, which political party relies least heavily upon tested information?

It is true both parties are comprised of many older folks, but some older folks disregard actual information in the hope of rewriting other people’s sentences. This is where and when stupidity plays an important role.
