I am thankful for Justice Roberts at the Supreme Court, but as a leader of the boomer generation ? Not really. I like to listen to Cokie Roberts and, in another sense, Dolly Parton, but in terms of a best leader ?   If I was forced to make some kind of choice, maybe Brian Lamb of C-Span, but he was born in 1941 and the way the boomer cohort is usually defined he isn't part of it. There have been other definitions, some put the start-up date as anyone who was a child in the 1940s, maybe born pre-war, and in that case Lamb would qualify. Not as a leader in the usual sense but as a "good example" for others.   Billy   ----------------------------------------------------------------       Who would you say is the best (not merely most successful a la Clinton) leader of the Boomer generation?
