exactly. he is looking at government through the only lens he has, and by what he is describing, he seems to feel that a manager of a walmart would be a better leader than george washington, who started out as a land surveyor, since george never dealt with inventory control.
the premise that a particular group of people (who by the way have trashed the country by sending jobs overseas among other unpatriotic things) are more suited than another skill set to run government is just wrong. One can pick any occupation and cherry pick the skills needed to do it and project them to leadership qualities.
For example, Meghead Whitman does really good at electronic auctions... maybe she would be good at auctioning off the public lands? She showed little compassionate leadership of her people... she made a few rich and annihilated many, making herself rich in the process. That would make her a good republican but not a good leader of the people. But since he does not see the idea of the greatest good for the greatest number of people as an objective, but rather the greatest good for the top of the pyramid, it is an idealogical difference that he cannot grasp and even a ball peen hammer and chisel on his skull would probably not change it.
