That's not the issue. The issue is his qualification to lead

Wrong again my friend, the issue on this tread is his book 'death of the west'. Do you really think a mayor of 'Podunk Junction' is a prerequisite for writing contemporory, world renown classics?

James Carville was an advisor to Clinton

Lousey comparison. Carville is, was a negative campaigne consultant. Never participated in a summit. The only book he wrote, that no one read or are aware of was 'the 1st horse in town?'. Hell I can't even remember the title.

Fine. How about Lanny Davis? Or George Stephanopolous. Point is ... you can't hold up the title of "White House Advisor" as some kind of accolade and then turn and run when negative examples surface.
