Clinton came to the National Association of Black Journalists Convention... Clinton was in a room of black professionals -- many of whom are at the top of their game and experts in politics, health care, foreign policy, environmental issues, transportation and other issues that affect all Americans.

Black or white, this is how journalists see themselves. In fact, this is how politicians see themselves too. Their job description is to be an expert at the professions they observe.

Yeah, I caught that expert reference too. Reminds me of an old joke.
A reporter boards an airplane for an LA to NYC flight and sits in the seat next to a nuclear power engineer who is busy working at his laptop, thumbing through various engineering references as he does so.
Bored, the reporter asks the engineer if they could discuss nuclear power.
Slightly annoyed at the interruption the engineer says sure, but let me ask you a question first, if cows and horses both eat grass why does one species make patties and the other apples as a consequence of the digestive process?
Gee, I don’t know answers the reporter.
The engineer says what makes you think you’re qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don’t know sh*t?
