12. You need an inspirational figure for that.

President Obama was able to get a lot of people who never voted before to get registered and vote because he was dynamic, highly charismatic and exciting.

Piss was also able to get a ton of people who never cared about politics at all to register and vote for him because he spoke to them in a way that normal politicians do not. He excites them.

Without an inspirational figure to get these non-voters motivated, they’re just going to sit on the sidelines. There just doesn’t seem to be anyone like that in either party.

This all presumes there will actually be real elections going forward.
