Hahahaha Republicans/Libertarians have been saying that for years. Closest they've had was the TEA Party, which isn't even an actual party AND more or less been hijacked by the right wingnuts.
Remember Occupy Wall Street? Maybe these are the same kids emerging from mom's basement after 6 years of playing video games. I don't know. But they're far more likely either to go back to the basement or get actual jobs rather than starting any kind of revolution.
The problem with Sander's "political revolution" is when most of his next gen supporters start making any kind of real money, they realize socialism is kind of expensive and a lot of liberal entitlement programs become a lot less appealing...at least when you're paying for them rather than receiving benefits.
