Pretty good credentials. Actors are smarter than Democrats unless, of course, they are Democrats.
Let me try to dope this some more. CSI Las Vegas is a television program. Are we good so far?
Yup
Thompson also played the Navy captain in "Hunt for Red October" which despite the presense of Alex Baldwin was a better movie than "Bedtime for Bonzo."
The last actor we elected POTUS worked out just fine.
