If we have to beg someone to register to vote and/or beg them to vote, should that person be voting in the first place?

If one is not motivated to vote in the first place, will they bother taking the time to research candidates and issues?

It seems to me that it becomes a case of, who has the most advertising dollars and who can show up on enough funny shows; a popularity contest if you will.

I know there’s nothing particularly earth-shattering about that observation, just thought I’d throw it out there.
