Two people favour educated leaders, especially for Presdient of the United States.
Eric: “I like my world leaders to be well educated intellectuals like Clark. I like them to be statesmen and not cowboys.”
TheYeti: “I want clear headed, classically educated, and morally strong people in the White House, regardless of their gender or the color of their skin.”
That's all well and good. (Note Eric's not-so-subtle dig at George W. Bush. Yeah, name-calling doesn't help your case.) I've said the following elsewhere, and I quote myself verbatim: “I prefer well-informed informed democrats who make decisions which benefit the most people most of the time and a decision-making process that is fairly flexible and transparent.” Educated leaders are more than welcome, but being "educated" is neither a sufficient nor even a necessary condition in order to get my vote.
And so there is no confusion, I mean democrats in the sense that a person listens to the electors as well as leads them, and not in the capitalized Democratic sense which refers to the American political party.
