Being a radio talk show host just means you can be interesting to listen to; it doesn't mean you know what you're talking about.

That may be true but it's meaningless. Heck, you could say that about Rush or anybody else. However, I would think that being the son of a President gives Michael insight and knowledge, as well as a unique perspective, that is totally unavailable to anyone else. His opinions are informed opinions. Michael Reagan is nationally syndicated, and I would guess that if he didn't know what he was talking about he would lose audience.

I do say that about Rush. Pretty much all the talk show hosts are just blabberers who have never done anything constructive. The exceptions would be (disregarding his politics) someone like George Stephanopolous, who actually did some significant political work before becoming a TV host.

However, I would think that being the son of a President gives Michael insight and knowledge, as well as a unique perspective, that is totally unavailable to anyone else. His opinions are informed opinions.

I think that being the wife of a President gives Hillary insight and knowledge, as well as an unique perspective, that is totally unavailable to anyone else. Her opinions are informed opinions.

It's a silly argument when she makes it too.
