High Noon: Silent Majority Too Busy

On his Facebook wall, Otis G Experience writes: "Is anybody else tired of political mass-market buzz statements with no actual substance? I think the true foundation of America doesn't want to be associated with any extreme... so it stays out of the discussion entirely. To me, a REAL revolution isn't really about big government OR big business. It's about recognizing that the silent majority could easily overpower the noisy extreme. Fact is, I think the silent majority is too busy living life to really care."

Question: Do you consider yourself part of the Silent Majority?
