Academics should stay in the class room or the teachers lobby and discuss theory, they just don't have what it takes to actually govern. The real world is far more complex and messy than the ivory tower.
Yeah, who wants their country to be run by someone with an 'education' anyway.
Well, there is another vote for the "dummies".Academics should stay in the class room or the teachers lobby and discuss theory, they just don't have what it takes to actually govern. The real world is far more complex and messy than the ivory tower.

He may be educated but he is not smart.
Fixed it for you.He may be educated but he is not Nostradamus.
An education is great but if all you have in your resume is an education and then you step into the real world armed only with an education, well you have seen how that's working out, not so good.
Many people confuse the two.
I agree, politicians should do something to help communities or go traveling around the world or work as a lawyer or something before entering politics...
I suppose if one completely forgets 2001-2008, where having "dumb" people execute "dumb" policies which has caused directly and indirectly much of the instability in the Middle East today.....then one could incorrectly define "Smart Power" and whine about the situation in the ME.
What depth of understanding and vision!
Having an understanding of business by running one or working in one would help too. Just having a real job in the real economy for a while would be nice.

What? Bush/Cheney and the whole neocon crowd have taken responsibility for their actions? Really? I think someone is ignoring that huge hole in Crawford.On the other hand, for those challenged by the concept of taking responsibility, the years 2001-2008 have sure helped dig holes for many to bury their heads in.
What's a real job then?
That appears to be either Iraq....or Texas.Or perhaps its the sand in the ears causing some to imagine there is a hole...
Yes, smart is not desirable. Dumb is. I get that. So do students btw. :coffeepap
