I have not read the opinion. Me, I just think it is all about how well informed one wants to be before one makes a decision. If all you want is short sound bites on TV...well, ya get what ya get. The last 3 Presidents are national embarassments, IMHO. Put them next to someone truly great in history and what do they look like? Put them next to, let's say, Benjamin Franklin. GEESH. Now that is ugly.
