Have you ever had to work for a manager that is utterly clueless about your field of work? It's a horrible experience and rarely results in good management.

But that's beside the point. Like I said, if all he'd said was, "I don't really need to know that, it's not my job directly and I'd keep people around me who would know enough to keep things working," I'd have been fine with it. I do think it's important that a President understands the economy as, directly or not, the office does have influence on it, but I also understand that they can't know everything and that's why they have a cabinet and advisers.

It's the absolutely shameless use of the "radical Islamists" bullsh*t that makes that answer so utterly heinous.
