It’s that time again, when people delve into a presidential candidate’s eating habits, transportation habitsand hair styles. Never mind the policies, now is the time to talk about the nothingness of the very early stages of the campaign.
Time to watch for gaffes and try out those gotcha questions, all while running frantically to the next sad little roadside cafe in Iowa. If a candidate talks about substantive issues too much or doesn’t spit out a sound bite soon enough, they are “boring.” We want to see saxophone-playing and baby kissing!
It’s a weird way to choose the leader of the free world—we want them to be our friend and be “human,” never mind the shady fundraising going on behind the scenes. (Granted, I would rather have a beer with Ted Cruz than Sheldon Adelson, as painful as either situation would be.) So let the circus begin, I just hope the circus involves some real insight into how the next president might govern.
