Over four hours surfing on a computer/smartphone.
Hasn't read a book in over a year.

This means the below average person hasn't read a book in close to five years, gets all their news in snippets while eating dinner, and considers an intellectual conversation to be complaining about what illegal immigrants get, while ignoring what their handouts are.

Votes from the lower end of the gene pool count just as much as college educated, job creating votes.
A lot get their information through a Facebook filter imbedded in their "smart phone."
