Maybe it was just a question, and maybe they were fine with the simple answer.
What if the answer was "I'm gathering data so that I can go back and get congress to close all schools" ?
Not likely to ever be his particular angle, but in fact he is gathering understanding at least in part to inform his policy role, and his being a congressman does make his presense validly noteworthy in a way that his merely being 74 years old or any other property does not.
Maybe it was asked in a challenging disparaging unwelcoming way, but I see nothing in here to lead to that assumption.
