Obama's Executive Experience Revealed

[Fine Vol]

Yea if Obama ran a oil company into the ground he would be more suited.

 

[VolDad]

Right.

You denigrade the Democrat nominee because he's a U.S. Senator, but what is the Republican nominee? A U.S. Senator.

Can you guys be any more of a hypocrite on this?

Congressman 4 years, US Senator 22 years is greater than US Senator 2 1/2 years

I think that was a weak attempt at using Bush to debunk the importance of executive experience.

Bushy

how about this one since we're having history lessons? "if Obama had wooden teeth and wore powdered wigs he'd be more qualified."

 

[onevolfan]

Again...it's not the fact that Obama is currently a senator. It's the total lack of leadership and executive experience.

Other than a brief stint as a senator, Obama has done nothing more than attend an ivy league school and author a couple of books about himself.

He was a Illinois Senator from 96-04, and a U.S. senator for the past 4 years.

I caught it, just didn't understand how it helped the point.

You really need to get your facts straight. He has been a U.S. senator for 4 years, and was a Illinois senator from 96-04.

 

[BigPapaVol]

He was a Illinois Senator from 96-04, and a U.S. senator for the past 4 years.

so he's spent all of his formative time in large negotiating bodies, is a constitutional scholar, yet has never penned any meaningful legislation. How's that make you think he is experienced?

 

[onevolfan]

You realize Obama hasn't been a senator for very long at all right? he's probably spent more time campaigning for president than he has being a senator.

See posts 32 and 35.

now that you straightened out he facts, does it even remotely change that Obama is woefully inexperienced and unprepared?

Its meaning is profoundly deep as it transends through the political grumblings of the VN peps.:blink:

Ok. if obama does have a lot of experience why use THIS as his example? There are two possible conclusions from this obama statement:

1) he has no experience

or

2) he is a complete idiot since he has great experience, but instead choses to mention "running" his campaign as his most relavant experience.

Just like Palin?

OK. Congressman 4 years, US Senator 22 years is greater than IL Senator 8 years US Senator 3 1/2 years.

Happy???

2) he is a complete idiot since he has great experience, but instead choses to mention "running" in his gameplan as his most relavant experience.

Just like Palin?

Palin is not running for POTUS

 

[BigPapaVol]

Just like Palin?

does it matter?

Obama's freaking saving grace is the fact that he is similarly experienced to the other team's VP candidate? Very strong work.

Bushy

What does that have to do with the current election?

 

[Jaytrain5]

Just like Palin?

That's what makes the Palin pick so brilliant.

It runs Obama supporters around in cirlces.

Obama supporter: "She has no experience."
Rational observer: "What experience does Obama have?"
Obama supporter: "but she's not qualified."
Rational observer: "What qualifies Obama?"
Obama supporter: "She has no experience!"

Just like Palin?

Palin has managed and she is not at the top of her ticket.

Furthermore she has also actually brought about change and reform instead of just talking about it. Obama actually used the establishment to get where he is today. Palin's story is much more in the ilk of "self made woman".

If Obama is so into change and reform why didn't he bring that to Chicago (it is much needed there) during his time representing the city?

 

[Fine Vol]

What does that have to do with the current election?

You would vote for a guy who bankrupted an oil company but rail a guy who does not have what you deem the required experiance.
