I can become a bit of an obsessed crusader and have a Christ complex, which would lead me to concentrate too much on one problem and possibly ignore others. A good president can take everything in at once and make a thousand good decisions before lunch.

I'm fairly certain that Stewart or Colbert would also be smart enough not to bring yes men with them. Bush was not smart enough to avoid that trap, and he'll probably be judged harshly by history.
