For all of my ‘24′ fans out there, this was just an observation. If you want to get an idea of what happens to a nation at war under a president who was elected for other reasons besides experience, watch this show (specifically, the first two episodes for this season)

There is no way anyone can have experience to be president of the U.S. unless they have already served a term as president of the U.S., and even then they still may not be prepared.
In other words, I think the “experience” factor for President of the United States is a canard.
I’m serious.

What sort of experience would a potential president need in order to be considered qualified?
America is a place for new ideas and new people - Obama is exactly right !

Here is where relativism come into play.
So when you two gentlemen were hired with your present employer, is it safe for me to assume that you were hired based on how well you spoke alone? 99% of the talk that I hear regarding Obama has to do with how well he communicates. Anytime I ask what he has actually done to seriously be considered for the presidency, I get nothing but the sound of crickets.
While I am not a Democrat, I can at least appreciate the fact that the last two Democratic presidents had experience on a governorship level along with the experience of working within DC politics. Looking at Obama’s record, uhh…brotha has yet to author a single bill AND he is still a freshman senator. Sorry, but Obama is a media construct. To me, he is a Black John Edwards.
If he is gonna tell a reporter that he is putting her on notice for talking about his ears (because he used to be teased about that in his childhood) and wants to lead a nation during wartime…you can fill in the rest.
DS, you can’t be defending this guy :). You gonna run out of room fast, man.

Call me crazy but I want my president to have a stellar resume. I would be willing to elect him mayor or possibly governor but not president.

I’m not defending him. I don’t know squat about him.
Pres. Bush had governing experience but people like Bob Novak have said that his team has been inept in the legislative process. Bush has signed laws that, in his own “signing statement” he said he tought it was unconstitutional. Then there is the idea of the “signing statement” itself. If I remember correctly, Bush bragged he hadn’t been overseas and had to get a crash course from Condi Rice, who, for good reason, had learned alot about Russia and Europe. And the creation of Homeland Security…. Even I knew that was a horrible idea. But his supporters said Bush was qualified.
Now look at the Middle East. Who would have experience in that region? In my view, if you don’t have experience there, then chances are you are not going to be a good president.
You are right, Obama IS a media construct of sorts.

I really don’t know how people can still be undecided as to who to vote for. A man who served his country and almost died doing it 40 years ago, who has been in D.C. over 20 years and made no significant changes for the good of all Americans (only the wealthy), graduated from the Naval Academy second to last out of his class, low family values, computer challenged, with a vice who has NO D.C. political experience or foreign national experice, low family values. OR do you vote for a man who graduated top of his Harvard class, the highest family values, the deepest love and care for this country and it’s people, who represents all of us, not just a select (top 2 percent wealthy) few, with a vice who has D.C. political experience and has fought for the common American people his whole career after enduring drastic family tragedies? There is no contest here. Obama will win!!
