Why is it that only less than 40% of Americans vote?

If I’m not mistaken in their last presidential election, more than 80% of the French voted. Young people in the middle east would now die to get a chance at it. Internationally, Americans are admired for democratic values and practices hence when a friend of mine from abroad found out less than 50% of Americans vote, he was shocked.
