Dumb As We Want To Be

Thomas L. Friedman in his new book Hot, Flat and Crowded uses the term "dumb as we want to be politics" to describe the current state of affairs in America. 

I'm watching Michelle Obama on Larry King Live tonight and she is inspiring me. This election is SO MUCH about who we want to be as a people....

She says that Barack surrounds himself with experience because "he knows what he doesn't know"...there is nothing more important to know.
