35-yr old to lead USA's $700B bailout .... bad choice??!!

35-year old Neel Kashkari is the Interim Assistant Secretary of Treasury and will be leading the US $700B bailout package.

A Wharton MBA grad, Kashkari in his previous Avatar was a NASA Engineer. Post-MBA, he was an intern at Goldman Sachs for 2 years after which Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, invited him to work at the White House.

Though Kashkari is immensely talented, I am not sure if it is a good idea to have him lead the US out of this financial mess especially when top leaders of other countries are managing things in their country!
