The who or the what

The current presidential campaign has overemphasized the 'who' questions for inquiry of the adequate compatibility with the job position of president of the us. The relevancy of personality, traits and individual recent comments is questionable when there is a plethora of past actions in the form of legislative activity or lack thereof by the two individuals that get the vast majority of MSM (main stream media) attention. As the people being the hiring committee for the position of president we have for our review a vast collection of public domain information of the highest relevance for use in deliberation before making a decision. Normally those making a hiring decision of a company there is very limited availability of information about the the past actions on the job of a candidate. The people on the other hand effectively keep those file drawers of info shut and instead choose to squable over some of the most inane and trivial tidbits attached to each candidate.
