with the normal criteria for determining who’s of presidential caliber,” in the words of Joel Goldstein, a St. Louis University law professor and scholar of the vice presidency.

“I think she is the most inexperienced person on a major party ticket in modern history,” said presidential historian Matthew Dallek.

“It would be one thing if she had only been governor for a year and a half, but prior to that she had not had major experience in public life,” said Dallek of Palin. “The fact that he would have to go to somebody who is clearly unqualified to be president makes Obama look like an elder statesman.”

“The first thing that hits me,” said Stephen Hess of the Brookings Institution," is that it suggests that John McCain is a gambler. This is a high roller decision.”

“The next thing you have to ask yourself: Is it worrisome to have a gambler in the Oval Office? That’s an important question," he said, “perhaps more important than anything else today.”

  1. She has more experience being a leader than Obama has.


  2. Once again the liberals tip their hat.  Putting the messiah (Barack) in as President is like as soon as you get your driver license you go and race in the Indy 500.  At least Sarah Palin has experience on the executive level.  Maybe when the libs pull their head out of their fourth point of contact they will realize that Barack is very, very dangerous and nothing but a figure head.  Or have you already forgotten about William Ayers?  Ayers is the one that likes to blow up government buildings and say that we should not have any prisons.  That all prisoners should be under house arrest!!  Did you already forget about the Reverend(?) Wright?  He is the mental midget that talks about the US of KKKA!  Yeah, we need a mental twerp like Obama in the White House like we need Iran to have nukes!  WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

  3. I may not have the knowledge of political history that your select team of liberal thinkers have but my vote counts just as much

    I can also counter their comments with pro comments from a group of equally educated political historians

    I can give you a list of people who say the same thing about Obama, starting with his VP

    Funny how the left is crying that she is not experienced enough but when the right made the same observation of Obama they were being petty and racist

    So if we look at this

    Hillary, who most thought was the most qualified VP running mate, was not even considered and now the left is condemning the female R VP candidate

    Would we be correct in assessing the Dem party as misogynists

  4. Carter was a peanut farmer with little experience himself. Give me a break.  

  5. may i present you with a loud and resounding....YES!!!!!!

  6. well considering most professor's or teacher's in college are liberials i do not hold much weight in their opinions.

    think for yourself!

    do you what to live in a socialist state like France  where youpayover 60% of your wages in taxes? Than vote for the progressive liberals!

  7. i saw a dirty old man.  smiling 'cause of his catch.
