Do you believe the experts or the politicians?

Foreign Policy has updated its 'terrorism index'. The last version of the index showed a very poor assessment of our progress in the battle against terrorism. In the current one the assessment is even bleaker.

One of the pieces in the current index
compared the statements of some of our presidential candidates to the opinions of the experts whose opinions form the basis of the index. In each case, the experts disagreed with the candidates.

Didn't Kennedy attribute the Cuba imbroglio to his reliance on the experts?
