I heard Fareed Zakaria speak last month. Brilliant guy, he nails it about Palin.
He spoke for an hour to a huge gathering I was at. He is, of course, extremely bright, and his take on world conditions was insightful. (He has a true global perspective, but didn't mention global warming. Didn't say he was perfect.)

Anyway, the posts are popping up here about his just-posted article that is so true about Palin. I will let other posters comment on that article; I just wanted to note that this is a damned insightful guy with whom you can disagree, but he knows his stuff. He will never replace Karl Rove on Faux News, but I sure would like to see Keith talk to him.

4. Zakaria is intellectually honest. I also think he is earnest.
