,1,Why are two old, unpopular men the main candidates for the world’s most demanding job? It’s the question John Prideaux, The Economist’s US editor, gets asked the most. And the answer lies in the peculiar politics of the baby boomers.
Since 1992, every American president bar one has been a white man born in the 1940s. That run looks likely to span 36 years - not far off the age of the median American. This cohort was born with aces in their pockets. Their parents defeated Nazism and won the cold war. They hit the jobs market at an unmatched period of wealth creation. They have benefitted from giant leaps in technology, and in racial and gender equality.
And yet, their last act in politics sees the two main parties accusing each other of wrecking American democracy. As the boomers near the end of their political journey, John Prideaux sets out to make sense of their inheritance and their legacy.
Launching July 2024.

This untitled, uncredited black-and-white silent home-style movie chronicles the process behind constructing a highway and connecting roads. Likely dating to the late 1940s or early 1950s, the film, which is set in a rural area of what is likely the United States, depicts the different steps behind constructing a highway from clearing the land to pouring and flattening the concrete. The film features lots of scenes of the machinery involved from what appears to be a CAT 633C Elevating Scraper to a CAT D9 Track-Type Dozer among others.
Film opens, aerial view from small plane of agricultural farmland below; Close-up of highways running through vast fielded areas (0:08). Partially cleared field, what appears to be CAT 633C Elevating Scraper drives over soil (1:02). CAT D9 Track-Type Dozer follows a CAT 633C around field area (1:42). Young boy stands to the side and excitedly observes the large tractors at work, runs into field and climbs into the CAT D9 (1:50). Close-up as perhaps father shows young boy how to operate the machinery (2:16). Number of tractors, bulldozers, and earthmovers drive through flattened area, move and overturn soil (3:26). Shot of cement plant seen across the road, cement kiln towers over 1940s/1950s-era cars parked nearby (4:31). Crane guides scoop shovel down into gravel, gravel dropped onto loading hopper, falls onto truck waiting below (4:48). Scene changes to beginnings of highway being paved, area packed with various pick-up and construction trucks, workmen set down wire screens and heavy steel track across road; Hammer in big steel stakes to hold track (5:07). Bucket attached to pulley system and concrete mixing truck drops concrete mix along road (5:32). Machine that cuts grooves into concrete (6:14). Young boy from earlier runs across work area and climbs into what appears to be similar to Adams 1950's Motor Grader (6:24). POV from driver’s seat as motor grader drives along worksite (6:05). Return to aerial view, shots of completed highways and stretches of road winding through rural area (6:55). Film ends (7:56).
