Someone from the show, The Independents, went out on the streets to ask people which they preferred - the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare. It was stunning to see how many people didn’t know they were the same thing.
One woman answered that she preferred the ACA. When asked why, she said, “Because it’s affordable.”
Never underestimate the gullibility of the average American voter.
Still maintain that at least 2/3 of Americans are hopeless idiots and have no idea what is really happening around them. They have no idea that communism is taking America over.
Many Americans are caught up in the glam of fame, be it entertainment or sports. They pay very little attention to politics. Politicians capitalize on this by using 'sound bites' when they speak, recognizing that few will make the time to read through a proposed bill. It's also true that many Americans do not take notice of politics until it actually effects them personally.
