You mean this one?I would love for people to have to take the citizenship test.........
You mean this one?
Could you pass the U.S. citizenship test? - Being an American - MSNBC.com
Or this one?
Sample INS Citizenship Questions
Look, the executive experience argument has merit but is also flawed. George Bush has more than quadruple all the candidates combined and most would not vote for him again. On the other hand you have people with no executive experience that went on to be great presidents.
So why can't we all end this and talk about issues?
A quicky wiki check shows Illinois with 59 state senators covering districts divided by population. Chicago has 20 - 3 million/20 = 150,000. So Palin governed 600K while Obama represented roughly 150K
Once again, this is a flawed argument, I will take your factoid of Obama only serving 150K to Palins similiar time as a mayor of approximately 5500. Now take the 600K your using as her Alaska Gov. and compare it to Obama's constituency of half of Illinois since there are only two senators from the state.
Both arguments are dumb and this circus can go on forever.

I was directly responding to the claim that Obama had 3,000,000 constituents as state senator - he did not.
I also pointed out there is a distinction between governing and representing.
However I agree that arguing about experience between these two is a futile exercise. I've stated over and over - I'm with McCain because of his policy stances. I'm against Obama because of his policy stances.
