Not educating himself fast enough on issues outside governor's remit. Educating himself on some things by talking to the wrong people. Liz Mair (@LizMair) September 21, 2015

To me this among others is the true danger to presidential candidates. The ‘consulting class’ is there only for themselves and much like others in the ‘elite’ classes they will eat you until you are dead and gone.
