Obama or Palin -- Who Has More Experience?

Do you guys think Mcain would have choose a Male VP if Obama went with Hillary. Think about it no matter how good Palin is Mcain would not have choose a female if you hillary was VP for Obama. Mcain could have choose any male and he would have won based on people are not ready for a Black PR and a FeMale VP. But now that Mcain has a Female VP its all good, I wonder why.Dub_c6969

Oh, please. I don't know who he would have chosen, and I don't care; he chose Palin for her right-wing views to even out his moderate views among Conservatives.

[Obama was a leader his entire life, studied law for in Harvard, became a lecturer there for 12 years, majored in politics and minored in international relations. I'm sorry, whos more experienced?

When he doesn't have a teleprompter, he sounds like he's had a lobotomy. Uuuhhhhhh we uuhhhhhhhhh need some uuuuuhhhhhh change!

By the way, haven't seen you around in awhile man.

You're a senator? Wow, nice to meet you sir!

We're talking experience, it doesnt have to be executive, anything that prepares you for being president and getting us out of pit Bush so kindly dug for us.

That's silly. The only ones suggesting the country may not be ready for a female PR or female VP are the left wong media. Dems are the only ones who ever play up race or sex. As a republican, I honestly don't care about sex or race. I want the best person to win and that is NOT Obama.

[QUOTE="famicommander"]LJS brings up an incredibly valid point. Obama has done nothing except co-sponsor bills that were already going to pass and campaign for president. Palin has built roads, updated sewer systems, managed the growth of the fastest-growing city in Alaska (and yes, I'm aware that it's still a tiny city), and maintained the balance between getting resources and protecting wildlife in Alaska.Dub_c6969

Yes, because, you know, you can hunt at certain times while still wanting to be protecting wildlife.:roll:

Bush dug NO hole. That's just liberal garbage. Unemployment has been down in the last 8 years while wages have gone up. There were plenty of reasons to invade iraq. Broken sanctions, kicking out inspectors, weapon components scattered around the country not to mention mass genocide. And no, when the OP said LEADERSHIP, he meant real, official leadership and Obama has NOPNE of it. Palin does. Pretty bad when a VP candidate has more experience than a Pres candidate.

Uh...experience in the field dude. Or do you maintain that all experience is equal? Thus someone experienced in carpentry is absolutely experienced for a political office. Because that's what it looks like you just said.

1. Obama only graduated from Harvard in 1991. Sorry to disappoint you, but I dont think Obama could have launched into a political career a year after graduation. Palin won a college scholarship in a beauty contest at the age of 20. She went to a small university in Idaho and majored in journalism. Obama was a leader his entire life, studied law for in Harvard, became a lecturer there for 12 years, majored in politics and minored in international relations. I'm sorry, whos more experienced?

I'm sorry, I interpreted the title as experience, didnt know there was some unspoken rule that it had to be political, aka getting into a city council with the incredible credentials of being a woman!

Obama.

This experience argument is a waste of time.

We had many great presidents that didn't have much experience.

This election isn't about experience or any of the little things you conservatives try to pick out to make the other candidate look bad.

This is about the policys and beliefs of the candidate that will set this country in the right direction when he/she takes office.

When talking about the most important position in the world, inexperience is not a little thing, Niether are ties to Bill Aires and his mentor, Jeremiah Wright. Niether is him hiding his past and his promoting of infanticide. His wanting to open dialogue with terrorist nations definitely not a little thing. Maybe you should take a very close look at him and realize what's at stake.

What? She did all that before getting onto the council? Impressive. I thought she was voted onto the council for supporting (surprise, surprise) tax cuts and having the whole "I'm a woman which means that I'm instantly better than a man with identical credentials". Like it or not, women often vote for women, and people are often more impressed by a successful woman than a man. If I was an attractive woman, and yelled about lowering taxes, in an insignificant wasteland of a state with a larger population of mooses than people, I could climb to the amazing position of being part of a city council. Which is what kickstarted her career. She's not special, shes just smarter than most.

Thats the way our society works. Women often care more about marrying rick and being sluts rather than getting an education and doing some good. No girl I know wants to be a politician, thats for sure. And the key word is successful. The simple rarity of an intelligent woman who managed to climb the ranks is what impresses people. If she fails, no-one will look twice at her.

Haha, Alaska is insignificant? The oil industry would disagree. She's apparently a very strong woman. Unlike Hillary, Palin seems very genuine. She maintains a very strong family while governing a state. That all seems pretty special to me. Dems are always asking for someone who isn't just more of washington and she is far from that...unlike Biden. Oh and a huge bonus is that she lookslike a freaking hot librarian.

Nope. But it's good to know that you think women can't seem to get ahead without flaunting the fact they're women. Says a ton about you.

Tell that to the people that vote simply based on sex and race. They exist, in great quantities, and it cannot be denied.

. . . . .Uh, then why are there so few women in politics?

Because few ever want to be.

Sexist AND ignorant.

Maybe the comments about Alaska were overboard. And stop labeling everything sexist. Its the truth whether you like it or not, and stating it doesnt make you sexist.

Gee, she's smart! What a horrible thing to be for vice president.
