Yeah, that's genuinely an issue - attention span and commitment - but, within that issue though, is the root that I think a lot of Millenials feel 'disenfranchised' (not the biggest fan of the term but it works) from the system. As in, they (rightly?) feel the system doesn't represent them. So there's no point in participating. So the wheel of indifference keeps spinning. Now, contrast that with a platform that directly says something like this: "We aim to create legislation and change laws to benefit you, and odds are your parents or anybody over the age of 50 aren't going to like what we propose because it's good for you, even if it's not good for older people. They had 40 years of voting and they voted everything for themselves - well, we've paid attention and we're going to use that manual to reset the lay of the land a little." From there, policy and platform papers can be constructed with moderate (capping interest on student loans as % of income) or extreme (Federal Income Tax penalties for anyone working over the age of 55) or batshit crazy (de-fund the DEA). It's somewhere to start, because the apathy is kind of what the political system counts on from the youth.
