"This guy has zero understanding of how this stuff works."

We see a lot of that. A lot, for example, think a state governor has the power to hire and fire any state employee. I am not aware of any state where that is true, but...

It seems to stem from the belief that the only way a management structure can operate is when there is a single individual with absolute power at the top with everyone else subordinate.

Except for the fact that by the time that Obama was selected, there was already a board in place. That board selected Obama.

No, there was not a board already in place. Obama was part of the founding board.

Why make sh*t up?
