How about running something?
Senate Committees. State Governments. Businesses. Most American Presidents were leaders in the military, Governors, respected Senators. This guy has 3 years in the Senate. When he started forming his campaign committee he had barely had time to find out where the executive washroom was. I want a President who knows the ins and outs of Washington. I want somebody who can draw on years of experience fighting political battles to tell when they are being fed crap and what is the right thing to do in a crisis. I think that Obama could have been a great President, but if he wins right now I doubt very much that he will manage more than mediocrity. He has run on charisma, not competence. I have no doubt that he could do better, but he doesn't want to take the time to learn how. I believe in taking the time to learn how. WE need somebody competent right now. We need somebody who can understand economics, international relations, and government finance and grasp concepts instantly, not somebody who is smart and will learn in time.
