Here is an interesting finding in this poll about millennials.

I have to say that it's a little disappointing that white millennials cite the "national debt" but not racism as a top concern.  It's good to see that 24% name climate change though. That's the issue of their generation.

But it's interesting to see the way these issues divide among the different demographic groups. It doesn't mean they all don't care about the same things. But priorities matter. If anyone had done this sort of thing among baby boomers when they were all under 35, they would have likely named the Vietnam war as a common priority --- but it wouldn't have told you whether they were for or against it. There were plenty on either side. It looks like the millennial generation is similarly diverse in its thinking.
