One of the most brilliant minds alive today. If he was 10 years younger, I'd quit my job and campaign for him to be president. Can't believe he's never been asked to run.

Inspiring credentials: His dad died before he was born, dropped out of High School, got his GED, was drafted into the military, attended Howrad university, and transferred to Harvard, graduated with high honors, and earned numerous awards.
The man is worth at least listening to.Comment

Isn't Sowell himself an intellectual? Based on his own definition that would appear to be the case. And much of the conversation is dedicated to the idea that "intellectuals" are rarely if ever best suited to lead. So I'm not sure what the point is. Intellectuals are best suited to point out the faults and weaknesses of other intellectuals? Only an intellectual can properly laud the achievements of a non-intellectual? That's pretty insular and totally ouroboros-like. Smart dude for sure but, as he himself would no doubt say, so what?Originally posted by Jim Jeffries View PostComment
