You mean, like the Americans who made president someone who two years before had been a state legislator and ran on "hope and change"?
Seriously, just who did Zbigniew Brzezinski have in mind when he said this on Morning Joe today?

Brzezinski repeated the notion a bit later: "We talked about the candidates earlier. It's amazing to me that some of the leading candidates are people who absolutely have no track record and have no serious ideas other than a lot of slogans."
