President Biden is the First President Elected From The Silent Generation

This is kinda blowing my mind right now.

I know generation bounds can be inconsistent, but I’m using this as the guideline:

That puts Clinton, W, Obama, and Trump all as Baby Boomers and Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, and HW all as Greatest Generation.

This is an entirely too rigid definition of generation. Biden was born in 1942. Clinton, W, and Trump were all born in 1946.

- Your fact that those three were all born the same year is what I'm finding interesting.

- Generational boundaries are all made up anyway. A lot of people put Obama in Gen X being born in 1961, while the linked graph steadfastly places anyone before 1965 as a Boomer.
  
  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  Or all the "elder millennials" that are actually Gen X, like bro, 1980 is not a millennial. You were 20 when Y2K happened.

That's not something I would have expected. This is one of the only interesting things to me I've actually seen on a mildly interesting community
