You know, ten years in the legislature, I'm pretty accustomed to having a hectic schedule on the young person question. It's interesting. Young people really do have kind of a terrible track record, right, of being involved in politics. But young people have a really good track record and good statistics of being involved in service. And I bring that up because I think to the point I was making earlier about work, when you present politics as the work of service, I think you can engage folks on the right ideas in the right direction, particularly young people. (32:42–32:58)
