I am neither a sociologist nor a politician. All I can do is imagine for myself what the future will be like.
My own beliefs are that the road to a scientific discovery is seldom direct and that it does not necessarily require great expertise. In fact, I am convinced that often a newcomer to a field has a great advantage because he is ignorant and does not know all the complicated reasons why a particular experiment should not be attempted.
I'm no editor, no artisan, no expert. And certainly no arbiter of what you should buy, wear, or eat.
I'm obviously not a rapper, and I don't have any claims to be one, really.
The truth is I'm not actually an expert programmer! I really don't consider myself to be an expert at anything. For me, it's more about having a well-rounded and broad horizon. I think that's where a lot of the more interesting things come from - mashing up completely disparate aspects of life to create something new and original.
I'm in politics, but I'm not an expert in politics.
I deliberately made an effort not to become an expert on the ballet.
Experts are able to identify patterns related to a specific problem relevant to their area of knowledge. But because nonexperts lack that base of knowledge, they are forced to rely more on their brain's ability for abstraction rather than specificity.
I'm not a military strategist.
I am not an expert on that whole issue of gender.
I'm not a sociologist, I'm not a political scientist, but I'm a fairly intuitive person.
