That could be stiff competition, but I’m not going to argue with Newt about it. She’s certainly the dumbest one in my own memory.

But here’s my question: Why does a vice president have a national security advisor? In fact, why does she have a portfolio at all? There is nothing in the Constitution about this. Her only duties are to be president of the Senate, break ties with her vote, and to be available if the president leaves office. How did we get to the point at which the media are so ignorant of the Constitution?
