Judge Napolitano on the First Amendment, Censorship and the Fed

The judge is clearly brilliant and incredibly articulate. He'd make a great president. There are three problems I see: First, his résumé is light. He's never governed before. He's never even legislated before. He's never lead a company. American's (rightly, in my opinion) don't like electing scholars who are only scholars. Scholars who are also legislators or governors or community organizers or CEOs, sure. But a person who has made his living arguing and deciding upon the arguments of others will not be a popular candidate. Second, watch his interviews with Jon Stewart. The man doesn't know how to remain poised when he's having fun. His appearances on the Daily Show make him look like a buffoon. Something that Mitt and Barack and Georgie and Bill and George and Ron and so on is that they can crack a joke without looking like an idiot. A viable candidate needs to be relatable. Third, the Judge isn't a handsome man. He's overweight, has an intimidating hairline, has an intimidating accent, has an intimidating vocal timbre. He reminds one of a mob boss. Unfortunately, the "electability" piece is very real and something that a legitimate political party will and should consider when vetting its candidates for office. Just my $0.02.
