It's a little misleading that they marked experts as opposing ideas when that opposition was merely based on political feasibility.

I agree. We hire and pay politicians to represent us and get done what needs to get done. They work for us, and their political careers are not my / our concern. If they don't have to will to be leaders then we simply need to hire someone else.

I'm tired of "political feasibility" being a euphemism for negligence, incompetence and lack of creativity.
