Burns: "We forget to select for wisdom"

Documentary historian Ken Burns stuck around for another day in Nashville and stopped by for a media Q&A after a lecture with students. I’m wondering if maybe we should be electing him, instead:

“We’re at a crossroads of incredible danger, not only from the outside, but from the inside, with our economic situation. This is no time for people to choose those who aren’t really serious and (don’t) know what we’re talking about.”
