McCain points out Obama's inexperience, yet he picks someone with NO experience?

Question

Who may, due to McCain's age, have to run our country?? She has NO foreign policy experience! h**l, she was a PTA mom who moved up to city council, and now she's been a govenor for what, two weeks?? I'm sorry, but if the old dude kicks it, I don't want to have this unknown SEVERELY inexperienced woman running my whole country.

Answer 1

The reason McCain picked her is because she is pretty, he hopes that the Hilary supporters will vote for him solely because his VP is a woman, and it will be easier to rape Alaskas countryside with the former Governor backing him.  

Answer 2

Your wrong! She has more experience then Obama and he's obviously smart enough to elect a woman & possibly gain Hillary's 4 or so million voters to his side!!! Read up on Palin's background before assuming things your unaware of.  

Answer 3

Experience as a 1st term governor > experience as a 1st term senator for president.

Answer 4

She has executive experience,Lil Obamabot. Now you can have your old boys club with Slowbama and Hair Plugs R Us Biden.

Answer 5

Governor Palin has more qualifications than Senator Obama and could even get a FBI security clearance which Senator Obama's known associates would kick him out of the system.

Answer 6

She's served more working days as a governor than Obama has as senator.

It seems to me that McCain gave Obama's supporters the change they wanted, and now you're angry.

If you're upset at the prospect of a woman you view as inexperienced maybe running the country, the prospect of a man with no experience definitely running the country should scare the living c**p out of you.

Answer 7

Some of you people are complete idiots.  You are a fool if you can't see the complete hypocrisy that is a hallmark of the republican party.  Your own boy Rove was criticizing Obama for potentially choosing someone with mayoral experience in the 105th largest city.   Now this is McCain's choice?  All that has been said about Obama lacking experience is now moot, we point it out and now we are the ones with the problem?  Obama will be the next president of the US, and we will all be the better for it.  If you don't like it, dare I say, you can always leave.

Answer 8

How ignorant are you?  She has been a mayor and Governor which are executive positions.  Obama has been a senator where all he had to do was show up and vote and he couldn't even be bothered to do that.

Answer 9

Last I checked Palin has more executive experience than both Biden and Obama. She has ran a government. They haven't.

Answer 10

I agree with you mccain picked somebody to young and i think obamas choice is to old. We are going to hav to pray about this whole presidental thing.  

Answer 11

Sorry Miss but you are very misinformed. She has cut taxescut wastee fulll spending and has an 80%approvall rating. All Obama does is vote present.  I hope she does get president in the future. You appear to be mean spirited

Answer 12

Well, yesterday you people were all saying experience is irrelevant.  I can understand you being annoyed with the hypocracy, but at leaast be honest about it.

That being said, Palin has more experience than Obama.  Obama has NO foreign affairs experience either so your "concerns" dont really wash.

Answer 13

Sorry, Palin has more experince than Obama.

She has run an entire state for 2 years, Obama has only been a Senator for 2 years.  He never did anything, he had a staff to take care of it all.

Answer 14

you see, McCain HAS experience unlike your candidate running for president.....

Palin has more experience than Obama...Google it.

What type of expeirence does Obama have ??? 143 days in the senate???? HAHAHAHAHAHAA

Answer 15

Wait, it's O.K. for your PRESIDENTIAL candidate to have no experience, but it's not O.K. for the republican VICE PRESIDENTIAL candidate to have no experience. That makes sense. You must be figuring on Obama having health problems if he is elected so the experienced one (Biden) can take over. You don't want "this unknown SEVERELY inexperienced WOMAN running my whole country", but you're O.K. with having an unknown SEVERELY inexperienced black MAN running your whole country. Come on, the man is a first term senator who has been running for president since he was sworn in as a senator. He has a total of 143 days experience in federal government,and in state government, he cast over 170 "present" votes on legislation, and ZERO executive experience. Do you realize how silly your question sounds?

Answer 16

Dear Professr

I completely agree with you. I believe and hope that Americans can see how transparent this is. I believe that most Americans want someone who has some kind of experience to run things. I do not

care if a person is a women, man, white, black, asian, latino, or

whatever, I want the best qualified person. We all know that

Mc Cain's vice presidential choice has no experience to run this country.

Thank you for your voice of reason

Answer 17

And yet has more experience than your "block party organizer".

Answer 18

AMEN!!! YOU ARE SOO RIGHT!!! HE SAYS OBAMA IS INEXPERIENCED WHEN PALIN IS MORE INEXPERIENCED THEN HE WILL EVER BE!!!! AMEN!!!

GO OBAMA!! OBAMA!! OBAMA!!

Answer 19

Those in glass houses should not thrwo stones you Obama bots should sut up about this she has More experance than Obama and he's on the top of your ticket she's on the botton

Answer 20

Obama has experience with known terrorists, radical racists preachers, his own radical islamic beliefs, he doesn't salute or pledge allegiance to the flag.  Nope, not happening for me or America.  

Answer 21

You have very good cause for concern, but I wouldn't stress on it too much because after 8 years of republican (bush) incompetence, I doubt the republicans have a chance of winning this election as does a snowball in you-know-where.

.

Answer 22

On the contrary..

Palin has more experience in the executive branch of Government than Obama does .. Obama had none!

Answer 23

Oh my, ProfessorL, there you go again ... in your inimitable fashion you've gone and lifted the rock to see what it was covering ... shame on you for disturbing the landscape!

Dang, you really know how to press the buttons ... and this country of ours has plenty of EXTRA LARGE buttons (as witnessed by the majority of the knee-jerk replies your post generated) ... kudos to you!

Yes indeed, the PR and PC minions are busy at work now, rubbing their greasy little hands -and fleshy thighs- together in frenetic joy now that PTA Palin has entered the big dance.  

I'm curious about the line-up of folks that have critiqued your post ... hey, folks, are you trying to tell me -and ProfessorL- that Alaska's gov was actually on your top 1000 list of possible Veeps?!   Yeah, right ...

What, this morning you heard the news, tuned into your self-righteous pundits, ran a couple of Google searches and BAM! just like that, you're suddenly a freakin scholar on Alaskan politics and American governance ... dig a little deeper within yourself ... get real, then consider (maybe) offering your half-baked -and borrowed- thoughts.

Keep up the great work ProfessorL ...  

Answer 24

yall need 2 stop being haters on obama im 10 years old and i also know about politics im also black so if u got 2 say something nopw go ahead cause i know no ones better than any 1 so just stop yall being racist and critsicing!

Answer 25

She is a Governor for nearly 2 years and Mayor before that.  She brings some important things to the table if you read that are in regards to oil & fuel, going after the crooked state officials, even in her own party, environmental, health to list a few.  She does NOT have ZERO experience with foreign policy and she also does have military experience herself via the reserves and her son is in the military.  She has done what she said she would do in office, she keeps her word.  I live in Illinois and Obama has done NOTHING significant here, NOTHING!

Answer 26

She scares the heck out of me.  She reminds me of someone from the '60s.  Not a real good time for this country.  Very divisive and separated, but not equal.

Answer 27

no different than having a second rate senator from illinois running our country

Mccains running mate has a sky high approval rating

Answer 28

i agree with you, but talkin to who ever said obama doesnt have experience, at least his running mate does. Also i think we should give obama a chance, i dont think he can put us in a deeper ditch than bush has or mccain could. everyone always complains about bush, however some are about to pick someone who agrees with bush. Obama may be senator, but he doesnt have to focus on babies, chick just had a baby in april wtf. and she's only had 2 years experience. i mean no offense, but the terminator was elected gov of cali, obviously you dont need to be that smart to be gov. but yeah Obama has had my vote since day one...

Answer 29

Being the VP it would help to be governor more than a senator. Obama also picked someone whos been in washington for 30 years when hes saying that we need to change whats going down in washington.  

Answer 30

I don't know much about this Palin character. However I do study politics and what I can say is that things in politics are done for strategic reasons than anything else. If Palin really has no experience then my assumption is that he chose her so that he could wow and gain the support of the Hillary voters to boost his ratings and votes.

Like i always say to myself when I watch these things unfold,,

"OH THE HYPOCRISY IN POLITICS,,,,,!"

Answer 31

VP is a job that does offer on the job training, unlike the presidency. Just ask Joe Biden. I'm sure he agrees.
