A comment on Watson for President. Parent comment

The old joke, thrown out from time to time by politicians and pundits, to describe a lack of quality candidates,is that:

"Anyone smart enough to be a good president wouldn't want to be president."

This, because of the pressure and stress involved...

Watson, with human advisers, should be relatively stress-proof...a possible plus...

I guess then the joke would evolve to: "Anyone smart enough to be a good adviser wouldn't want to be."

It isn't about stress, it's about the greed for power. Anyone who wants that much power definitely shouldn't be trusted with it.
