On the subject of change -- that folks of my generation can't do much about -- and concerning my belief that Americans in general have been too insular. Some of us think the finding below is a good thing:
"Pollster John Zogby describes his sample of 18-29 year olds in the U.S. as “First Globals.” Fifty-six percent have passports and have traveled abroad. One quarter expect to live abroad. He writes that 'they bring a consistently global perspective to everything from foreign policy to environmental issues to the coffee they buy.' Zogby’s findings suggest that these younger Americans are likely to embrace their roles as responsible "citizen diplomats" more readily and be better equipped to address global issues in cooperation with counterparts in other countries."
