The man is a complete imbecile.
Do americans even WANT a smart president? A lot of the draw of a Palin is that she wasn't the brightest person around. "I want a president like ME, not some ivy league genius who spent 20 years at school". Some people actually want someone that is, well, like them.
personally, I want a prez that is WAY smarter, shrewder, and experienced than me. Imagine a world where people want a doctor that was last in medical school. Imagine a world where you want your defense attorney to be fresh out of school with zero experience. Imagine a restaurant where they advertise they actually have the least experienced chefs.
Some people don't want a smart president. For them, there's Biden
