Sorcerer's Apprentice is an old story about a kid who is apprenticed to...you guessed it...a sorcerer.

The kid gets ahead of himself, and deigns he is ready to wield the power of the magic..under the spell of his own HUBIS, and disregarding the warnings of his mentor that he is unready.

Long story short: the apprentice gums up the planet.

Clinton , et Ali, are the apprentices; the mentor is history: common sense, unfettered by delusion.

That help?

You might be thinking of George Jones. This is George Jonas.

I had to do a double take on the name too when I first saw the story.
