The man was a nobody who became a token affirmative action candidate. Palin had more executive experience than Obama ever dreamed of. Her record at making policy is proof.

stuck in the past are we? (not many candidates other than a re-elected president has the experience for the office.)

Like who? Who were past presidents in recent history who lacked zero executive experience at governing before they were elected the first time?

By executive experience, you mean strictly governors correct?

Bush, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Truman, Eisenhower were not governors, and that's just post-WWII.

Those guys had careers in politics with decades of experience. Kennedy had 14 years experience as a politician in Washinton as a Rep and a Senator. Ike was chosen because we needed someone to handle the Russians/communism in the 'Cold War' due to his military background. Obama as a U.S. senator with only 147 days experience in Washington voting present all the time lacked total experience with zero knowledge at dealing with the nations issues. That zero experience has led to this nations economic collapse, high unemployment and our dismal reputation in the world. Palin will restore our country to the founding principles our founders provided for us and abide by our Constitution and not trample on it like Obama has.

Ok, so when you say experience you mean anything besides what Obama has. 147 days is just a flst out lie. He was in years longer than the hockey mom.Its laughable that you think two years of governor of Alaska (of all places) is somehow qualifying. Reputation in the world? I would love to see Palin talk with European leaders and come out better off. Your bias on this issue makes it impossible to discuss honestly and intellectually. If you are willing to look at this honestly then go ahead but other than that any discussion with you is a joke.

Again, Obama lacked zero executive experience at governing who never dealt with fiscal reforms when at the time the nation needed it badly. Palin was in office 965 days with a exceptional record of policy making. She was just 35 days of President Kennedy's 1000 days in office.

Again, what exactly is executive experience? If you mean being a governor then all the men mentioned above didn't have any. If you mean serving in office, then Obama beats Palin by years.

I would like to see the airhead talk to Middle Eastern leaders. She'd be winking at them and sprinkling her speech with "You betchas!"
On second thought, no, I wouldn't want to see that. Rapture-ready Bible Spice would love to instigate Armageddon and the Second Coming.

Palin quit because she couldn't handle everything that comes with an executive position. Obama, on the other hand, has handled the executive responsibilities for going on six years now without quitting.
