Loads of people run as the "common man", but it's rarely true. There's nothing common about running for president or senate.
Yeah I'm not meaning they're picking people without a high school education but that being at the top end of the scale tends to be a bad thing. There's an idea that you want the smartest people running the show but in practise that's shown not to be true. How many (phd) doctors have been president? It's surprisingly low IIRC.
