Politician who is in touch but not smart or smart but out of touch

[ShyGuyInChicago]

Which politician is best to vote for? A politician who is in touch with the issues the country is facing, but not smart or a politician who is smart but out of touch?

[Sage]

Neither, they both suck, vote for someone else or don't vote at all.

[The Dark Lord]

why would you knowingly vote for someone with such obvious flaws in the first place?

[Amnesiac]

That's like asking whether a Big Mac is healthier than a Whopper. They're equally bad.

This is why we have third parties.

[Suicune]

Neither. Vote for who sees your views and intentions.
