31 Million Watched Obama


President Obama's address to a joint session of Congress last night drew 31.4 million viewers across 11 networks, according to Entertainment Weekly.

"Overall, Obama's TV audiences have declined during his presidency. But last night's viewership is higher than his previous recent policy speeches on Libya in March (25.6 million) and on Iraq in August, 2010 (29.2 million)."

1. It's because they or someone they know is out of a job
When it gets personal, people pay attention. And people aren't really very interested in wars. They're for others to fight. If you bring back the draft people will start paying attention.
