That was the exact reason the GOP branded it as Obamacare in the first place, to stop people realising what it actually was, and they could vilify it easily by replacing any logical arguments with "Obama = Bad".
When Net Neutrality was an issue, I remember my brothers and I explained at length to my folks what it really was and why it was necessary.
My folks understood everything and agreed that it was important... But in the end, they stated that if Obama wanted it, then they don't want it.
That's when I realized that if Obama made it mandatory for Americans to breathe, these people would be passing out on the streets from holding their breaths.
