Imagine you're a political candidate running for office and a reporter asks you, what is your biggest weakness? What should you say? In last night's GOP debate on cnbc, that was the first question asked. Awful question from the standpoint of cnbc. Here's the correct answer. If you are a politician, someone says, what's your biggest weakness as a candidate? I believe you should turn to the reporter and say, impatience with trite, lazy questions like that. Because I'd much rather answer the question of how can I help improve the lives of citizens by doing, and then go off to what you want to talk about. It's hard to imagine anyone other than the reporter being displeased with that answer. And you technically answered the question because you said, impatience with the question is your biggest weakness. Obviously, it would be said somewhat tongue in cheek, but nobody really expects candidates to say, well, you know, I drink too much, I beat my spouse. I mean, no one really expects that. It's kind of a dumb, lazy question. First time I heard that question was in junior high school. And people are trying to sort of get under the skin of kids running for student council. So it's a very childish question. But if you're ever asked that question, I'm not suggesting you use my answer in a job interview, but if you're running for public office, I do think you will score points with that answer. You answer the question, put the reporter in its place, and you're able to then talk about your policy proposals to help people's lives. You'll be in much better shape.
