That would require the average person to be intelligent enough to understand relevant issues, be analytical enough to not take claims at face value, but to assess their truth independently, and to be able to resist the smarmy marketing that happens in every political race.

I also look forward to the day when my scorn is a valuable commodity, and people pay me to just insult them, and I get to retire to my private ranch with a dog pack bigger than anyone has any right to own, but that’s about as likely to happen as people not voting based primarily on personality and disinformation.
