You have a point.  Smart presidents are dangerous, and stupid
presidents are run by smart people, who are dangerous.  So it
probably doesn't much matter.

The important thing to keep in mind is that presidents and their
staffs represent the powerful, by definition.  They don't represent
us.  They are our natural enemy.  There's no such thing as a good
president.
