A simple question Rick, how many people do you think follow the daily grind of Washington’s politics let alone as you put it, the nuances of what is going on or what is happening? Pew Research says 71% of all Americans watch the news at least once a month. That falls to 48% who watch the news regularly. What is regularly, who knows?

And to this question = 93. Political Interest
Some people seem to follow what’s going on in government and public affairs most of the time, whether there’s an election going on or not. Others aren’t that interested. Would you say you follow what’s going on in government and public affairs ...

Most of the time 41%
Some of the time 20%
Only now and then 16%
Hardly at all or never 17%

I’d like to know what sometimes means, once a week, once a month or is that only now and then? One can interpret these numbers serval ways. But I think only around 41% pay attention to politics regularly, the rest don’t. Nuances, good luck.

It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
