What kind of experience did Lincoln have?

These three had very little and are still regarded as great Presidents by many people's definitions.

McCain has no FP.
If you think this, what must you think of Obama's lack of FP/NS, executive and general overall experience (150 days in the senate)?

You don't have to bring edwards into this unless he became VP and failed.
The point of Edwards; I bet my last dollar you didn't think Edwards was unqualified. The notion of him becoming president didn't even enter into your mind, and he had even less experience than Palin.

The only conclusion - gender bias.

so, Palin has enough experience, but for some reason Obama doesn't?

Florida is definitely tightening up, but there is no way Obama wins there in November.

Edwards was leap-years smarter than Palin. That's the biggest difference.

This is a person who believes that a witch hunter from Africa helped her become governor.
You are frequenting those left-wing websites way too much if you believe something like that.

The PalinMessiah also believes the Earth was created 600 years ago and doesn't believe in stem cell research because she hilariously believes that a blastocoel is a human being.
Do you really believe that garbage you read from the left-wing blogs? You really have to suspend all common sense you might have.

How so? Cause he could talk a good game of BS? We all know how very smart he was, right? So smart he is now a ruined, lying, cheating, piece of garbage - and that's just what his own party thinks of him.

He didn't have the smarts or experience that Palin has.

Lets start with Lincoln.

Politician since 1846 elected president in 1861 You run the numbers on that and he actually started around age 23-24 I can't remember off the top of my head. Is that experience I think so.


Kennedy? 1947 senator from Mass. Elected president in 1961. So he was around for a while. WW2 PT boat captain.


Regan. Not much and look at what he did. He looked at for what he did while he was in office, but the true test of a president is what happens after they are gone. Are there plans and policies still in place, and does he still move the people. Regan only moves middle aged white males. Try again.
