The Big Bang Theory episode with Wolowitz and the robotic hand comes to mind.

Only 3 candidates have almost all of the votes, and the top 2 have never held public office. This is all the advice they need.

So, he is urging Cruz to “get to know” his Muslim neighbors?

I like this guy.

“Planned Parenthood, at the center of America’s politics since the release of videos purporting to show employees negotiating over fetal organs, is one matter candidates call him about. “I’ve argued that you cannot try to fund good and honorable activities or services for Planned Parenthood while blocking the bad stuff it does, like abortions, because of the fungibility of money, and that what we need is a complete de-funding of Planned Parenthood, together with mechanisms for providing desirable services to women. So that might be the kind of issue I’d talk to Rick Santorum or anyone else about.”

““I think I have a greater appreciation for the plausibility of some views, like race-based admission.”

From his conservative female students, he’s said, he’s also changed his mind in recent years about the prevalence of campus sexual assault, which he’s come to see as a widespread problem.”

Well, there are two of Professor George's opinions that are not exactly thoughtful, conservative views.

The way I read that is ‘politicians call me to help them finagle how to give away taxpayer funds and hook-wink their constituents’.

I’d suggest if more referred to the Constitution with their basic grasp of English (I presume JUST enough to grasp the ‘big’ words and phrases therein), the calls to Mr. George would be ~zero.

Yeah, I can dream still, can’t I?
