Answer:
speculation about Barack Obama tapping former rival Hillary Clinton to join his team as secretary of State is gaining serious momentum. Apparently Obama has already become bored with the presidency and wouldn’t mind shaking things up a bit by inviting the drama-prone Clintons back into the White House. Clinton would surely be a capable diplomat whom the world would embrace with open arms. But what else might be behind Obama’s thinking or Clinton’s, for that matter?
• Jonathan Freedland notes that “Obama partly passed over Hillary as V.P. because he didn’t want to import the Clinton family psychodrama into his White House,” but Hillary as secretary of State will invite the same “back-seat driver implications.” However, it’ll also “demonstrate great confidence on Obama’s part” that he won’t be “upstaged by a global celeb such as Hillary.” Of course, if he doesn’t pick Hillary, “he’d better have a pretty good explanation” or her supporters will be “mad at him all over again.” [Guardian UK]
Answer:
Scientists explain the estrangement of youth from politics, as well as political absenteeism by the following factors:
The first factor - society itself is the reason for the decline in the activity of the young generation and the development of political exclusion in the youth environment. The second factor - the interests of young people are currently focused on the problems of maintaining their existence and survival in modern conditions. The third factor is that young people, on the one hand, do not see the need to radically change anything in the current way of life, and on the other, they do not consider political activity as meaningful for themselves, finding more promising ways and areas of self-affirmation and personal self-realization.
Millennials are full of reasons to push for political change. But the “youth wave" is still a myth. As a result of this, power is chosen not by young and creative people, but by the average majority living 'by yesterday and today.'
Explanation:
