Will they allow themselves to be silenced?

Elizabeth Price Foley notes at Instapundit,

There are still many good, intelligent, and strong young people within our universities. The question is: Will they find a way to lead, and fight back against this progressive, PC censorship nonsense, or will they allow themselves to be silenced?

She links to a Wall Street Journal column by Peggy Noonan, who writes,

I shudder to think what kind of President this generation could potentially produce.

To which Instapundit commenter Daniel in Brooline writes,

Me too. We could wind up someday with a hypersensitive President, skin as thin as tissue paper, who sees mild criticism from the press as reason to lash out; who uses childhood gripes as the basis for foreign policy; who airs petty grievances all the time and gets in the way of police and the courts doing their jobs; who is more interested in tony vacations than in leading the country.

Oh, wait -- aren't we there now?
