With Joe’s approval numbers slipping, America’s youth is looking for a way out.
According to a survey from Echelon Insights commissioned by the Young America’s Foundation (YAF), 56% of high schoolers say that Biden should face a serious primary challenge with 61% of college students agreeing, including 68% of high school students who identify as liberal and 62% of college students who identify as liberal, The Daily Wire reports.
From The Daily Wire:
Biden currently faces challenges from Marianne Williamson and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the latter of whom has reached up to 20% of support from Democrats in some polls.
The president’s approval has dipped down from 2021 among both high schoolers and college students, according to the survey. Among high school students his approval has dropped from 58% to 33% and disapproval has jumped 29% to 47%. Among college students his approval has dropped from 62% to 38% and disapproval jumped from 28% to 51%.
The economy was a top issue for both college and high school students, though school safety slightly edged out economic concerns for high schoolers. Issues of race relations, immigration, and political corruption ranked as less important issues for both demographics.
Both groups also expressed support for mandating a maximum age for presidential candidates with nearly three-fourths of college students backing the idea of age restrictions. Those who favored age restrictions typically voiced support for an age somewhere between the ages of 60-69 as the oldest a presidential candidate could be.
