GK: Rolling with the punches

Keillor says that,

"America has paid a terrible price for one family's decision to take a boy out of the public schools of Midland, Texas, and send him off to Chutney or Amway or whatever his prep school was called, and then to Yale, where he picked up a permanent grudge against people who were smarter than he."


I think the problem is that many of our countrymen instead of looking up to those who are smarter and accept them as our leader, our countrymen look down on the smart ones and want to be lead by those who are either of equal intellect or even lower. I don't know about you, but I don't want someone who is dumber than I am leading me. The trouble is the current occupant, as Keillor calls him, does not have the smarts to be a leader and, frankly, Mr. McCain does not either. Let's face it, McCain was on the bottom of his class. Would you want to have the surgeon who was on the bottom of his class working on your heart bypass?
