Mi Asked:
Why don't they elect a genius president?
Why do people enjoy power over kindness, enjoy watching people squirm and having "yes-men" over kindness and true friendship?
Why do people 'get off' on making others feel left out?
Why do most drivers play control games on the freeway instead of just try to get from point A to point B safely?

Because I am not old enough to become president.
Because we live in a sin filled world.
Because it's fun. Just kidding, same answer.
Because it's all fun and games till someone gets hurt, and apparently no one has gotten hurt, so they continue to play games.

You asked some good questions, Mi! I'd be really interested to read them discussed in depth :-)
ReplyDeleteHey, Tanner,
"Why don't they elect a genius president?"
Mi might be asking, generally, why we don't elect presidents possessing genius and maybe there a reason for this, or not. Maybe we should, as a rule. Or, maybe we have and we just don't know it.
...maybe you could tell us.

Taralyn, I bet one possible answer to why we haven't elected a technical genius as president is because technical geniuses tend to have massive skill in one area (math, science), but be behind the curve in other areas (social skills??). A president needs to be smart, but not necessarily smart enough to build rocket ships or anything... whereas he *does* need a well-rounded set of other skills, like how to deal with people and crisis management and politics and law and...
