The voting age was 21 when I turned 18*

In 64 their first votes were probably for Johnson and they were told that Goldwater was going to get them all nuked. Ironically, Goldwater would have ended the war and not by withdrawing. So 68 comes along and they didn't vote for Nixon, who ironically ended the war. But it wasn't them.
They are the ones who voted for George W. Bush who got us in two terrible wars. So that's on them.
