The problem is that the man is an ignoramus in Economics, world affairs, and World and American History – the very areas of which the leader of the free world should have expert knowledge. The man is a lightweight that the media, in its usual mode of lemmings jumping off the cliff together, almost single-handedly pushed to the nomination. Merge with this the fact that he is ranked as the most liberal Senator of the 100 and there are some real Lefties up there.
