I disagree. Historians are over-specialized, and seem to always recognize the particular pattern they did their thesis on, no matter what the subject at hand.

The same goes for foreign policy majors, who actually run our country.

That'll only be true if Hoover ran the country like a mine, or Reagan ran the country like a movie set.

The sentence you quoted was about historians. I'm pretty sure your reply makes no sense at all.
