Why is politics no longer interesting to the young?

Like most teenagers, the topic of politics has never been a “conversation starter” because we just don’t find politics to be that interesting. I may go out of my way to find out who won last night’s ball game but won’t turn into CNN to see who’s leading the lastest polls. Personally I find politics to be very fake and corny because it just seems like they’re saying what people want to hear and not what they truely believe. Call me naive but shouldn’t politicans honestly take into consideration what the population has to say instead of just striving to get the most votes. Although I will not be old enough to vote for this election, I don’t plan on casting my ballot in any elections in the near future. I predict that this election will probably have some of the lowest young turn out ever. What do you think?
