“...40 years.” I think you are overly optimistic of the US public. Approx 1/3 are cool-aid drinkers, over half receive some sort of payment from the government (deserved, or not), and almost half the voting eligible populace doesn’t even show up to cast a ballot. This country is getting what, and will continue to get, exactly what it deserves until those three things change.
——almost half the voting eligible populace doesn’t even show up to cast a ballot-—
Along with the crack whores, the group includes the sanctimonious self righteousists that value their own very narrow views more highly than the good of the country
And who is going to change them? Unless and until someone gets creative, we will continue to preach and ever aging choir.

"And who is going to change them?"
The best solution I see is that we all hope that enough voters (democrat & republican alike) will have now seen the light and have now realized exactly how bad obamacare is and thus -they will always make sure to get out and vote - in big numbers- for conservative candidates - in all future elections or they (we) will be in the same quagmire again - - as we're in now.
A lot to hope for.
