Actually, the lessons of Carter are that the economy is incredibly important, image matters a lot in modern politics and that Republicans are willing to do anything, including make deals with America's enemies, to gain and retain power.
Yup, and that ties into the question of "what will the repugs dig up and misrepresent about Obama if he gets the nomination?"
Because he's been running for president his whole life, he's been too busy to make any landmark legislation.
And Clinton's been... what? Married to a politician? What Landmark Legislation has she created?
Well, she was the first woman partner at the Rose Law Firm. She tried to get universal healthcare to happen, remember that? I mean, i love how you say that it doesn't matter to you that one of your bases for supporing obama, that he has more experience, is flat out wrong. I guess once we step over the line to "facts don't matter" then there's no way to make a rational case for either candidate. And THIS is why people like be are completely mystified by Obamamania and call it cultish and religious -- because you abandon logic, facts, reasoning in your support for him.
