My main issues with the choice aren't so much him being foreign, although that is a concern. It's that I don't know that he can pull it off. Stewart could be ridiculous and silly while still staying completely on message and it was endearing. That's a tough tightrope to walk. Jason Jones might have been able to do it.
The other point is whether Noah can interview. Stewart was generally pretty good at it.
