Question

Poll ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Do you agree Obama is more Qualified to be the Commander in Chief than Governor Palin ?

Answer 1

No but Palin is not running for the BIG CHAIR.

Answer 2

Bases on what. As governor Palin has to make decisions on a daily basis. Obama during what little time he has spent in the state senate and god know 143 days at the federal level has never had to make a major decision and in fact any decisions.

Answer 3

No. Neither is ready, but Palin is not at the top of the ticket and therefore Obama is worse because he would become commander in chief. McCain in my opinion is the only one of the candidates ready and he is at the top of the ticket and has my vote Palin is not running for president.

Answer 4

No, Palin has more executive experience than Obama, who has none.

As far as foreign policy, if Obama had experience in that he wouldn't have needed Biden on his ticket.

Answer 5

Lets' see...

Obama: 8 years as a state senator, 3.5 years as a US Senator...over 10 years of community advocate..sat on foreign relations committe, EU relations committee, Healthcare senate committee, committee of economic affairs, .. = 20 years of public service

Palin: Mayor of a small town consisting of 5000 people in alaska, Governor for 20 months...

Yea...I'd say Obama is just a little more qualified...

Palin doesn't even have any relevant education.

scary thought, her commanding the military, and running the country if something happened to McCain.

Answer 6

Palin has ten years more administrative experience than Obama, so my response is no.

Answer 7

No, not even close.  Obama has absolutly no executive experiance.  What a joke.

Answer 8

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss...

Answer 9

No way!!!

I can see him going to tea partys with iran and russia.

Answer 10

NO WAY.  What has he done?  He can be rather eloquent at times but what are the specific accomplishments that demonstrate his capabilities as a leader, his problem solving skills, his ability to bring people together to deliver better solutions for America?  Trust me, while he may be bringing most of the Democrat party together, he's not endeared himself to conservatives.  We don't want any part of his socialist agenda.  It's bad for America.

Answer 11

Disagree.

Answer 12

I'm afraid of McCain becoming president because it will be extremely damaging. I mean if we don't do anything about global warming the polar ice caps will melt and essentially put US coast and major cities under water. There's nothing to govern if we have no country to live in. The war in Iraq is never going to end as long as we are dependent on oil. Drilling off shore will still not be enough to completely fuel America if we were to continue using oil. So giving a 3rd world country in search of obtaining nuclear weapons money will only fall from about 79 billion to 59. Money that we are still borrowing from china who owes us nothing and has the greatest economy in the world at the moment. And to vote Palin as VP who is a women completely inexperienced to think that McCain thinks we are stupid enough to vote based on s*x only is insulting. McCain really looks down on the American people.

Palin is a nobody and was picked by McCain after one visit. Its obvious that her qualification or lack there of was NOT the reason McCain picked her...But only the fact that she can wear a pencil skirt. PALIN IS NO HILARY! She is a poor choice for someone who could potentially be the President of the United States. If you are unable to see that, then I really don't know where you draw the line for experienced/inexperienced or progression /regression.

War is a big issue yes...But for the last 7 years our approach has not been THOROUGHLY reevaluated. This is ONE issue. To a number of issues. health care, economy, environment, taxes, jobs, and education that McCain is all inexperienced in and the only issues I heard McCain address are oil and war. Where he plans to give more to the foreign oil companies through tax breaks. We can't afford for those other issues to sit on the back burner AGAIN for another 4 years!

Vote for Obama. How can anyone say Obama doesn't have loyalty to the people when he turned down cooperate CEO jobs to work for the people DIRECTLY??? And instead of sipping champagne at rich republican party's kissing *** he was working in closet size offices in inner city's to support families that lost their job and health care to foreign countries, Obamas been working for the people of this country black, white, g*y, straight and of all religions. Open your eyes and look beyond the visual perceptions.

I can't believe McCain when he talks about morals because of the way he treated his first wife.

    

Answer 13

NO.  She was/is a Governor, which is like running a little country.  And aside from issues I strongly disagree with, she did a really good job doing it.  

Answer 14

Absolutely

Answer 15

Apples to oranges question.

McCain is WAY more qualified than Obama.

Answer 16

Once again you ask the same questions over and over and over again they are getting really old...and to answer your stupid question again. I truly believe that Gov. Palin and is more qualified then the communist obama who doesn't even deserve to have is name capitalized!!

Answer 17

No. Palin has executive experience. Obama doesn't!

Besides, she is not running for president. She is running for vice president. She is tough and smart and will be a quick study in office.

She is running a state that is bigger than most countries for one!

Answer 19

I think so, and I also think that the American Public if nothing else, is more COMFORTABLE with him by now. As Obama put it last night,

People are comparing him to Palin on experience, but as he put it:

Before she was Gov. of AK, she was a Mayor of 8000 (which is most of her Exec. experience). She had 50 employees and a budget of 12M. IN OBAMA'S campaign ALONE, he has 2500 on the payroll, and a budget that is 3x as large as her's was and that's EVERY SINGLE MONTH.

He's been all over the world and met with digitaries, presidents, etc. Shes been out of the country ONCE.

He's sat on the FOREIGN RELATIONS committee for 3 years and has the approval of 18M people.

I keep asking myself, "Sarah, Who?"

Answer 21

Answer 24

Answer 28

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Answer 29

I wouldn't put Obama in charge of the dog catchers, let alone a Great country lke America. This country was founded on strength and remains free through our strife. Obama would, as Commander in Chief, weaken this country with his 'Blame America First' policies.    

Answer 30

Yep, leading us down the wrong road Obama would be the best qualified Commander in Chief.
