We're in agreement on this, Spence. All Presidents must have trusted and qualified people to advise them, because no matter how smart they are, they can't know everything they're required to know to make decisions on.

I'm more concerned with there being no vetting process for these appointments. Especially when there is so much going on, someone like Van Jones could possibly slip under the radar.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
