Reagan served two terms as Governor of California. I'm shocked you didn't know this.

In fact, every President between Kennedy (elected in 1960) and 0bama (first elected in 2008) had experience as either a Governor or as Vice President.

So living in the Whitehouse for 8 years, and being a Senator means nothing compared to being governor, or VP? Your qualifications are amazing!

Living in the White House means very little. We have had 43 other First Ladies (Buchanan was not married; Wilson was married twice). None of them presented themselves as qualified for the Presidency.

However, being a Senator and Secretary of State does qualify Hillary for the Presidency. There are many other qualified candidates, let's pick the best one. She ain't it.

Sounds like Alec Baldwin in one of his commercials. " I am NOT a pilot but, I played one once'"

What great executive experience does one get by "being" a Senator?

What did she do or accomplish as a Senator that would lead you to believe it has much bearing on being President?

Certainly there's other experience worth examining, but yes, it's reaching just a bit to say that living in the White House counts as part of a presidential candidate's resume. When I was a kid, my siblings' and my pediatrician had his office in his house. My wild guess is that living in the same house did not make his wife or children qualified to practice medicine.

Her job as a lawyer is to represent a client per the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Her reactions and attitudes afterward is another story, however.
