Does picking Biden give credence that Obama is inexperienced?

Question

I mean...Obama basically admitted it in his introduction of Senator Biden as his VP..

Answer 1

didn't need Biden to tell me that.  

Answer 2

No, it means he has the wisdom to choose someone who complements his own skills and talents.

If John McCain were to pick someone who was young, intelligent, and thoughtful, would that be admitting that he is a senile old man?

Answer 3

Yeah.  

But McCain has NO more experience at being President than Obama either!

Answer 4

good point, from an outsider point of view.

I mean I am seeing as an outsider.

Answer 5

OBAMAAAAAAAA 08. He is well educated as well as Biden. Put those 2 heads together and you have a masterpiece.

Answer 6

Experience is actually only one of multiple factors here.  Just because so many of us have become hyper-obsessed with this word doesn't mean it's the end all be all dealbreaker.  In fact, far from it.  After all, if it were that important, most of the presidents we've had in the last 75 years would never have been elected.

"Experience" is not an issue.  Health care or energy are issues.  Let's talk about important things.

Answer 7

Your talking about two senators now. Get a grip on this idea that the senate as a whole has a popularity rating that is about half that of Bush. It was in the teens which is really saying that people do not trust the senate, especially one that is lead by Nancy Pelosi.

Answer 8

I'm not an Obama supporter, but that doesn't mean I can't be objective in my analysis.

Sure, Obama picking Biden is an admittance of not having a lot of experience.  However, it also means that Obama is willing to do some self-introspection, see what needs fixing, and do something about it.  That's a very good thing.  Our current president could learn a thing or two about self-introspection.

Answer 9

Biden himself has said it.

Answer 10

He didn't give credence to being inexperienced, it means he has judgment to pick someone who will advise him. And we all know the 57 states was a simple error. How about President Putin of Germany? Czechoslovakia? and the list goes on...
