Ben Carson was a great surgeon.  I have no clue why he thinks he could be president.  0 experience.

Barack Obama was a great community organizer. I have no clue why he thinks he could be president. 0 experience.

Well, that's kind of cheating since he was a senator too. Obviously I'm not above cheating, per my Truman post on the previous page, but the bottom line is LCD Soundsystem is not reuniting at Coachella.

Trump and Carson are both savants in their respective fields. Everywhere else they are out of their depths. Carson's apparent reserve is just the steely nerves of a surgeon.

I wish I could've been a savant at surgery or international business instead of being a savant at eating old popcorn someone left behind in the previous showing of "Paul Blart Mallcop 2"

funny, i think of more as obtuse.  did obama have any experience as president?  no (no one does, unless you're seeking a second term).  did he have political and legislative experience?  why yes, yes he did. 

he was also a civil rights attorney and taught constitutional law at the university of chicago's law school... so, you know, he knew was he was getting into.  clearly unlike carson or trump, who don't know where federal laws end and states' rights start.

Having knowledge on a subject =/= "experience."

did he have political and legislative experience?  why yes, yes he did. 

and agreed that knowledge =/= "experience", but the next best thing is being a professor on the topic at a top-flight law school.  carson and trump have no idea what the relationships are between congress and the white house, who decides what, who can make the other do what, what the mechanics are... whereas obama taught on the topic.

look, we get it.  you're still butthurt that obama won and hillary didn't.  cheer up, you girl is getting a second at-bat.

For some reason, I'm just not that excited about this one. I'll still watch it because it's a good excuse to get wasted, but there will be a hole that only an orange-haired billionaire balloon can fill.

That said, I think there's a 35% chance that Martin O'Malley takes off his shirt at some point. Dude needs to make waves. He could even play it off by saying "Ahhhh, much better, no one needs the chafee, ya know?"

Well, I know that Trump on Twitter is a very special thing, but I cannot imagine that he'll be very quick on the draw. He'll make some comment about an answer that was given 7 questions earlier.

That said, I do hope to hear that "HRC looks like golden retriever left out in rain. Unique smell!"
