The Bush Doctrine Doesn't Matter?

With the recent stories about how Sarah Palin didn't know what the Bush Doctrine was, I've been reading and hearing that it doesn't matter if she knows it because most Americans don't know what it is. ARE YOU SERIOUS? The problem with that theory is that most Americans are not going to be Vice President or potentially President! Do we want our leaders to be ignorant of this information just because we are? Does that make any sense at all? The qualities we want in our leaders are those of knowledge and extraordinary skill in many areas. Who cares if they are like us? That's what got us in the mess we're in now with George Bush in office. HE IS TOO MUCH LIKE US! If it came down to an elitist who knew what he was doing and could run our country soundly versus a down-to-earth know nothing idiot who would drive our economy and nation into oblivion, give me the elitist.
