Yeah and Al was good at it too before he got sac'ed for a dumb gag photo!
Jon is probably a bit more eloquent and has an impeccable moral compass. I've got a good feeling he's smart enough to know he doesn't know shit about most things but would during himself with people that do and would listen to them on those matters.
Also, he doesn't want to do it which makes me think he'd actually be good at it. He'd recognize it as a mostly shit job that needs to be done well and not as some sort of self-aggrandizing accomplishment after decades in politics. Something about true leaders not seeking power but having it thrust upon them I guess :>
