    Well... (5.00 / 1) (#3)

    I agree that it would be nice to get some younger people in the state legislature.  Not as an end in itself though.  Personally, I don't care if I'm represented by a 95-year-old white guy or a 22-year-old minority of your choice, so long as they are a true conservative, represent me well, and can communicate their values and ideas well.  

    Communication is an area where I believe the younger generation does hold an advantage.  They have a better grasp of the new communication tools available through the internet, and by virtue of being young, other young people are more likely to listen to what they have to say.  

    As for recruiting more women, it's not something I feel should be a priority.  I'll admit that I'm probably in the minority on the issue, even within the party.  That said, I'm old fashioned in that I believe that the man is the head of his household, and that the concept carries up into other areas of leadership as well.  Don't get me wrong, I love and respect women.  I would just rather be led by men.  Of course, I will happily vote for a conservative woman before a liberal man, any day.  It's just not my preference.
