Isn't Palin actually more qualified to be president than Obama?

Question

Now what exactly did he do as a senator? Put both their resumes side by side.

Answer 1

She is a state executive...she leads a large military...hum, you are right, have a star.

Answer 2

Yes she is.  

She has run a government - he hasn't.

She balances a budget - he doesn't

She is commander of a military unit - he's not a commander of anything.

She deals with foreign policies (at the very least Canada and Russia!) - he says he will talk to Iran and attack Pakistan, lol.

She's been to Iraq as many times as he has.

She's taken on corruption and won.

She's taken on oil companies and won.

She's proud to be an American!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank God for Sarah Palin!  She will get McCain elected.  

Answer 3

Nope, she isn't.

Answer 4

Different people have different qualifications that give them different experiences and ability to govern. If you look back at their qualifications. Governor compared to U.S. Senator. City Mayor/Manager compared to Illinois State Legislator. City Council compared to.... community organizer?

Obviously, there are various years in each role, but they both have been in public office for more than a decade, Palin since 1992 and Obama since 1997. They both have different experience, but on the face of it, Palin has more executive experience which would indicate she is better ready to govern, an obvious plus if you are going to be President.

Also, Palin has commanded the Alaskan National Guard during her tenure as governor. Also a plus.

If that is not enough, she kept her campaign promises from when she was running for governor into the office. I highly doubt that Obama will keep all of the promises he is making, just listen to them in his speech on Thursday night. They are incredible promises, they seem empty and just rhetoric however. Even if no one expects him to keep them, it still seems wrong and deceptive to make promises you won't be able to keep. Some of them, he would keep, but the majority of them are said just to sound good.

Answer 5

If judging simply by resume and actual work experience yes.

Answer 6

She probably looks better naked and the old dog McCain knows that and so do all your husbands

Answer 7

YES POSITIVE

Answer 8

She was a mayor and a govenor.  He has led nothing.  Also, in Senate voting, he usually votes "Present", not for or against, just that he is present.

Answer 9

She's younger, spent less time in the university, and less time in public office.

Answer 10

YES !!!

That McCain, what a sly fox, such a smart sly fox.

Answer 11

My mailman is more qualified to be President than Barack Obama

Answer 12

If you want to count executive experience, than yes she is ... but in that case she's also more qualified than John Mccain and most governors are even more qualified than her.

Answer 13

As always, it depends on what you count as important experience.  She has almost 2 years as a Governor, while he has almost 4 years as a Senator.  Before that, both of them only had experience on the local/state level.  It comes down to whether you think 2 years as governor is <> 4 years as a Senator.

Answer 14

Yes!
