Don't even have to be obsessed, just need some working parts of your brain, a bit of internet, and have alittle care for things other than yourself. Easy recipe to becoming a good voter. But cheering for your fave football team in Qatar while slave-workers are suffering behind the curtain, is obviously far more important.

Reagan was popular but his performance in the first debate made it look like he was too senile and unreliable for a second term.
