If Obama is not experienced enough, than either is Palin.?

Question

I don't understand why everyone is calling Obama inexperienced when Palin is even less experienced. And she doesn't really matter THAT much, MCCAIN is running for president, not Palin. After the election, how often do you hear from the VP. When was the last time we heard from Cheney? And who cares that she has 5 kids (which the 17 year old is pregnant), Im in a family of 5 too, maybe my mom should run for VP.

P.S. Thanks to Mccain for defending our country 80 years ago, but I don't see how that has anything to do with being president. Its not like he will be goign to fight in Iraq.

OBAMA '08

Answer 1

Palin was a mayor and a governor.    These are executive offices much like the office of the President and Vice President which is what she is running for!

Obama was a street activist.  He ralled people up and registered them to vote with ACORN.  Then he voted "present" 130 times in the senate.

Sounds like a dynamo to me??

Answer 2

Why don't all you nay-sayers go run for office yourselves and quit complaining.

Answer 3

Better a VP on the learning curve than a president.

Answer 4

I personally question how patriotic Obama really is.

As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides,' Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.

McCain not Hussein '08

Answer 5

Tis the truth. But since the Republicans have no substance on the issues they have to lie and mislead about things like this.

Answer 7

Because McCain is old and has a heart condition, so ..hello!...if he dies Miss Puke-lin because our El Presidente!

Here's Obama qualifications in his own words:

"They [Republicans] haven't talked about the fact that I was a civil rights lawyer; they haven't talked about the fact that I taught constitutional law; they haven't talked about my work in the state legislature, in the United States Senate," he said. "They're talking about the three years of work that I did right out of college as if that's-- I'm making the leap from two or three years out of college into the presidency."

Answer 8

Palin is running for Vice President, not President.

Palin has more leadership experience than any other candidate.

McCain has lots of foreign policy experience.

Best team = McCain/Palin

Answer 9

OMG the idiots are pouring in.  Tell me what experience Obama has?  He has done NOTHING.  Palin was mayor and Governor.  She is waaay more qualified than Obama and Biden put together.  

Answer 10

I disagree with one part of your statement. The vp pick is important for McCain because I can tell u this, he will not be able to serve his first term. He has a history of cancer and he would not be able to do his job, so palin would have to take over. go OBAMA

Answer 11

HOW ABOUT THAT !!! "PREACH MY BROTHER PREACH" !!!!!TELL IT LIKE IT" TIS" NOT LIKE IT" TWAS" !!!!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08 !!!!!!!!

Answer 12

Yes, very true.  And don't forget she is on the platform with a guy who sided with Bush 90% of the time, and he has been deemed a real *genius* of a president.....not.

PS McCain served 80 years ago?  No....we're talking Vietnam and that was not 80 years back.  And thank you Mr. McCain for serving your country.

Answer 13

Palin has more "executive experience" in that she is a Governor, than Obama has. And McCain didn't defend our country "80 years ago", you need to refresh yourself on American History, oh wait, you're just trying to be insulting, right?

And if Palin doesn't matter that much, neither does Joe Biden, but Obama chose him to balance out his "inexperience" with Biden's experience (like it just automatically transfers to Obama).

Answer 14

Is this a question or a statement/rant?

Answer 15

well since McCain is so old, she might have a chance of being president, so she is really important.

And if you listened to her speech last night, you would know how much experience she has. She was a a mayor and governor, which if your not aware, holds a ton of responsibilities.

Obama was an organizer, they do shiit

Answer 16

How is Obama more experienced than a governor, sugar plum?

Answer 17

At least McCain showed pride in his country unlike Obama.  And how is Palin less experienced if she's governer of the largest state of the country?  Do you call being a "community organizer" more experienced?

Answer 18

My God, another example of keeping the women down, so tiring, so boring, and even your statements are wrong,  Geez you are just a sad sad person.

Answer 19

Palin and Obama are comparably experienced.  But she isn't running for Pres, she's running for VP.  

The pres is the commander in chief of the army...........

And no, he wasn't in Vietnam 8 years before he was born.

Answer 20

Obama was a senator since 2006, and Palin was a governor for 22 months.

Obama has had other political experience besides that, and has Palin?  Maybe, but where did she come from, why the heck is she here, and if she becomes president because McCain might pass from cancer, we are most surely doomed.

Answer 21

You took the words out of my mouth. Obama is not experienced enough. He wants to be the President for crying out load. She wants to be VP. There is no comparison. Can you make a list of the things Obama has accomplished that makes him qualified to run America?

Answer 22

wow you made our point.Obama and McCain head to head is no contest.Palin is just there to get experience so she can win in 2012

Answer 23

She is experienced. She has made tons of executive decisions.

Keep in mind the Dali Bama is running for the number one slot.

Don't forget his circle of friends over the years.

Answer 24

I'm glad to see not everyone on this site is totally ignorant.

Answer 25

Um - maybe that's why they aren't complaining as much? Because Palin isn't running for President and Obama is.

Obama has no experience, and he's trying to rule the country. That's like hiring someone to work as a cashier and they apply for a job as Corporate owner. It just doesn't work.  

Answer 26

palin is better qualified

Answer 27

Tell you what: we'll give up Palin if you'll give up Obama.

Answer 28

She's been governor and mayor for Alaska and her town, and Obama's been a community organizer.

Tell me, which one would help with presidential elections more?

Answer 29

You're point is nothing new. It's been brought up a number of times.

1) Obama is running for president without experience, not VP... very different.

2) Obama has never been in a position of major leadership. Palin lead a town then Alaska.

3) You are very ignorant if you think the only reason she is running is because she has 5 children.

Why all the hate buddy?

Answer 30

Palin is  more experienced than obama she was a Mayor and a Governor. Do you relise that more Presidents were Govs than Sentors. Ragan is one of them.  Plus she has been mayor and gov. longer than obama has been senator.

Answer 31

It has to do with policy.
