Politicians are just "for the show." There are a special class of thespian. (It's all about "appearances" that "sell.")
Most of the great ones were great because they could think on their own.
But that is no longer why parties 'select' candidates. They select "marketable imagery."
This is not specific to Democrat politicians... it applies to Republicans as well.
I remember similar lamentations about the second "Bush" era.
It comes with the terrain of 'legacy thinking."
