Which Generation?

Joe notes below, and has said in the past, that Obama represents the post-Baby Boomer generation in American politics. Hold on a minute! Obama was born on August 4, 1961. There is no official end date for the Baby Boom generation, but some still argue that it encompasses those born from 1946-1963. Others say the final year is 1960, or 1961. Either way, if Obama's not a Boomer, he's on the cusp between the Boomers and Generation X. Which could mean....wait for it....he /transcends/ generations!
