I thought we were a Constitutional Republic. According to CIA worldbook we are " Constitution-based federal republic." Whatever works.
To answer the question posed above, I would answer that Badnarick knows a thing or two about the constitution and with that being one of the most important documents that sets the rules for the job, it'd be good for presidents to know it.
I also agree with madsenj37's comment on the different degrees of how far you support or agree with something. Thus, best not to judge someone based on the whole philosophy because they might disagree with the party on that issue which is why I will always support more than two parties.
