I ran into Dr. Oz once at one of his son's water polo matches (he was a goalie at Harvard). He was going to the bathroom and when he finished his business he left without washing his hands.

Dr Oz: "Turns out that about 1/3 families don't have the number of babies they desire. They're under-babied. So this president committed to address that during the campaign and he's delivering on that today."

If we really want to split hairs, George H.W. Bush was probably the most qualified candidate to ever run. Didn't make him a good President, but he had probably more credentials than anyone else after the founding fathers group of Presidents.

Kamala Harris: Some people have said I was the most qualified candidate ever to run for president.

Whatever, but saying it shows she was not the most disciplined candidate.
