Who really has more experience, Biden or Palin?

Question

Senators have no real responsibilities they have "Committees" "Legislative functions". Senators hold meetings and blow hot air.

Governors have many duties and responsibilities. They command the national guard, state police and deal with the state budget.

The Governor of Alaska is the head of the executive branch of Alaska's government and the commander-in-chief of the state's military forces. The governor has a duty to enforce state laws, and the power to either approve or veto bills passed by the Alaska Legislature, to convene the legislature, and to grant pardons, except in cases of impeachment.

Answer 1

Ya, go with that argument....I am sure it will be real effective for ya.  ;)

There is no way to slice this out and remove the mold from the crust (or the c**p from the bowl).  No spin will save it.  Palin was a colossal stupid move here.

Answer 2

Executive - Palin, foreign relations go to Biden; but the ironic thing is how much more experience Palin has over Obama, and she's only VP!!!

Answer 3

Bullshit.

Palin is just an empty-headed plaything whom has no NATIONAL experience whatsoever!

How can you sit there and diss a man who has had over 40 years of public service and try to elevate a woman whom has had NONE--over Biden?

My god! Did you forget your logic and reasoning faculties this morning when you woke up?

Answer 4

Biden!

Answer 5

Biden.

Answer 6

I have to go with Gov. Palin...she is actually running a state and she's only the 2nd slot on the ticket....VP, kids...not POTUS.  She has actually been in charge of something....Obama hasn't run a corner store....only 143 days on the senate floor...the rest of his time has been spent running for Prez....give me a break.  Let this woman make her case, at least...or has the opposition become THAT intolerant?

Answer 7

Biden..Get real..Look at Alaska...What the popullation..You are only talking about a hand full of people that she govern.  She's hasn't really been up against the HARD ROCKS!!  

Answer 8

biden has wayyyyyy more experience then palin, you have to be a governor before your a senator. dont believe the hype, palin is a nobody.  

Answer 9

Biden has more experience.  

Sarah Palin has more experience than Obama and is younger than her.

And, John McCain has more experience than all of them put together!

Answer 10

Biden has more experience in politics, but Palin has more executive experience because Biden has NO executive experience.

@Kesho: You have to be a governor before you're a senator? REALLY? What state was Obama a governor of, before he became a senator?

How can people just make things up and present it as fact?

Answer 11

Yeah yeah.  So, Biden has had no "real responsibilities."  Same for Obama and McCain, right?  Good thing John has Palin on the ticket, to fill in that experience gap.

Now that you've persuaded me that two plus two equals five, I'm writing in Phinneas T. Bluster, the mayor of Doodyville.

Answer 12

Palin has ZERO foreign exp except for  a visit to some wounded troops in Germany.  

Being governor of Alaska is like being mayor of Wasilla.  600,000.  I'm from Vermont and we have more people there.  

Answer 13

Biden

Answer 14

Palin has more experience at actually GOVERNING.

Golden - She is currently under investigation for her ex-brother-in-law getting fired.  And they have so far found nothing that incriminates her.  Unlike Whitewater...Wright...etc. etc.  I think you're grasping.

Edit - To the person below me about Palin's ZERO foreign experience.  HELLLOOOO!!  Obama has ZERO foreign experience, so they are EVEN!!  Only problem is, he is running for PRESIDENT!!  WHY WOULD YOU VOTE FOR HIM if that is your basis for running the country??  Palin is only second string!  Nobama wants to be top banana!!  Sheesh!!

Answer 15

Well obviously Biden has more general political experience.  But really that should be the Obama campaigns achilles heel since Obama ran on 'change' since Biden has been there for 35 years. same old same old.

But executive experience matters.  Thats why governors are elected to the presidency so much more often that congressmen.

kesho you do not have to be a governor before your a senator, Biden wasnt a governor, Obama wasnt a governor, McCain wasnt a governor.

Answer 16

no brainer, Biden, by a mile.  Palin's two years have not been good.  she's spent her time getting back at, and getting even with many of the very people that put her in office.  she is currently being investigated for wrong doing.
