Republicans are already nostalgic for the good old days: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/whhbPVrb5KM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/whhbPVrb5KM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/pCnjuJ1pbmc&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/pCnjuJ1pbmc&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/o4DykmZz_YA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/o4DykmZz_YA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Isn't it strange having a President... WITH NO EXPERIENCE OUTSIDE OF BEING A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER. Sarah Palin has more political experience then Barry does.
Did you miss the part where he was a state representative and a US Senator? A Senator--just like his opponent.
i never really understood the experience argument. Experience is only useful when replicating specific past results. If you are going to say experience makes a better president than surely you would expect to be able to look at ur past 43 presidents and notice a direct correlation between their experience and the success of their presidency. (ie. economic growth, foreign relations etc). But that correlation simply does not exist. In fact Kennedy and Lincoln both had very little experience. So whats the deal?
This is why I don't believe Wall Street can recover. Forever, it has touted itself as the exemplar of Capitalism. But when pressed into practice, it reveals itself to be soviet socialism, refusing to cleanse the incompetent and rewarding itself instead. It was a foregone conclusion that the South Korean bank would pass on injecting capital into Lehman when a failing company's executives stuff their pockets with one hand while begging for money with the other. This is now how Wall Street projects it's image and reputation to the world. So who else would place their faith and money into a system modeled in the old soviet style? Those that sit on top and continue to line their pockets are destroying the future of Wall St - business will go elsewhere for generations to come - but they do not care as long as they can feed at the trough here and now for as long as they can.
Yes, You can also include Education. So what do we look at to judge? Who they hang with, the intellectual company thay like to keep? Family history, drug abuse?

Well what I do, is look at what they plan to do and I attempt to determine if that's in the best interest of our country at that particular time.
I look at the philosophy of the party. Unless a candidate has party changing ideas, like Reagan, even Clinton when he went to the middle, all you are doing is supporting the current beliefs of the party. This is why so far all we see are old-time Dems at the side of Obama. he is going to be ruling from the left and talking from the middle. I don't see any change from standard politics. Hey runningman, you fool, Give Bush up, its over. In the points I listed all were referring to Obama, Its ironic you assumed they were all about Bush.
That's pretty funny! Amazing how someone that is a well respected man with military service and who represented his constituents for the past 26 years in the U.S House of Representatives and U.S. Senate could run such an absolutely ROOKIE Presidential campaign and get completely "clobbered" by a relative newcomer to the political scene - - - one who wasn't even suppose to be able to make it out of the Iowa primary. Obama: 364 McCain: 162 How badly can you run a political campaign? Just ask John "Erratic" McCain who borders on delusion and knows less about the Economy than most college kids that have taken Econ. 1. Or did you miss his campaign speech last month in which he addressed the crowd of followers . . . "My fellow prisoners"
