The Presidental Race ~ How are shows handling that?

Last night as I was driving I was listening to a host on our local airwaves who began banter about Iowa, the caucuses, and I was dying. Now there are two options I had to consider. One was the host truly knows this information and is playing dumb to irritate callers to get them to call in and set him straight or the host should not be covering this topic because he knows nothing about how politics work in the United States of America and truly is naive.

As the conversations continued I was left thinking the latter of those two choices was what was taking place. He had no idea why caucuses are held and why Iowa. His answers and/or questions made the Miss USA contest's map answer look good.

Tell me now do these people get these jobs?

Please save my faith in radio hosts and tell me who you have heard recently discuss this topic with intelligence or an inventive angle.

Of course I should have been tipped off when he said (talking about the caucuses): "In ONE word I can define this tradition" then stated, "That is really stupid, who cares about people's thoughts in Iowa." (I count 11 words minimum).
