Simply a matter of fact. The World War II generation is not in
power. Neither Clinton nor Gore. Clinton is younger than you,

Supreme Court, but a minority. Also a few Congressional Committee
heads, very few. Likewise, industry and the banks and
transportation and the army are all run by post-WW II people.
Even Colin Powell, now retired, started in Korea, a whole
different thing than WWII.
