    It reminds me of the R.E.M. song “Welcome to the Occupation.” The song’s repeated use of “and” might lends itself to Venn diagrams.

    My 2 pennies:

    I’d argue that the only thing missing is a Cause.

    Young + Cause = Teen Angst —> Terrorism
    Smart + Cause = DC Power Broker
    Educated + Cause = UC Berkeley Professor
    Smart + Educated + Cause = Billionaire philanthropist
    Young + Educated + Cause = Protestor (see: TianAnMen Square, 1989; Iranian Revolution, 1977; or Iranian Revolution 2.0, 2009)
    Young + Smart + Cause = Potential (equal to A)

    Young + Smart + Educated + Cause = Remember this name. Add him/her to your network. Do whatever you can for this person. See also: An unstoppable force.
