You guys think OUR PRESIDENT doesn't need to KNOW how to use modern technology?
Are you serious? THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE.
See, in my opinion this type of mindset is EXACTLY WHY...
- USA is SO far behind other countries in terms of technological advances.
- there are SO MANY problems with the govt's infrastucture.
- our schools are falling apart.
- a 'C'-level student becomes POTUS.
Because 'mediocrity' is HIGHLY acceptable by MANY U.S. citizens.
Since they also believe in 'trickle down' leadership, the underlings are MUCH less efficient than the boss.
Then the 'bosses' surround themselves with 'YES MEN' ... instead of 'competent' professionals.
Do you think the political leaders of Japan DO NOT know how to use a computer?
Why should Japan's leaders be 'computer literate', but OUR OWN POTUS does NOT have to meet the same 'basic standard'? That's crazy.
At the very least, McCain should have asked AL Gore for some Powerpoint lessons
Al Gore was too good for America. The dude is intelligent as hell, but average american idiots were too dim witted to understand half of the stuff that was coming out of his mouth. Hopefully Obama doesn't suffer the same fate.
