People keep saying Obama doesn't have the experience to lead the country.....So I ask what experience does hillary have.
I know she was first lady.
I know she is married to Bill Clinton.
I know she is a mother.
I know she was a law professor.
I know she is a senator, not much longer than Obama.
So how is her experience adequate and his isn't, according to hillary.

It's all the President Hillary jokes people made during Bill's administration.
Life experience? Obama just hasn't been alive as long. And while Ms Clinton may not have actually held the offices her husband did, she was closely involved in his work.

So Obama should wait until he is 60 to run for president.

I don't think Hillary is particularly qualified to run either. The one important thing she did has first lady she screwe up so bad, it took 10 years before the issue was even safe to debate again.

We should just elect the oldest person we can find then, I guess.

So why aren't people saying she doesn't have enough experience?
Really all she is, is a lawyer who dabbled in public policy and health care. And help her husband run for governor and then president. If people think she is qualified then maybe Bush's wife the librarian should be qualified as well.

Because she has even bigger issues for people to attack?
On the list of things you can get picked on about in a campaign, not having executive experience is fairly low on the list. She'd get it more if she ends up running against Romney, who lead a financial company, the Olympic Organizing Committee, AND a fairly large population state.

So its clear to me that the only thing bad about Obama is he hasn't been in politics for 40 years.

Bill is just Hillary's puppet so she's already ran the country....that's what she is trying to say!

I don't think either of them particularly have a great deal of experience, but I don't care for either of their policies, so I won't spend much effort trying to defend my position.

Hillary may have more experience in impeaching presidents than anyone else alive.

Obama speaks to hope and change, just like Billy.
He says nothing important about safety and security, just like Carter.
Does he have the balls to say that our military has an important job to do?
Has he ever studied FDR who was a real mensch?
Can he plan a tough campaign to get legislation passed like Johnson?
Or is he really just a cute guy with lots of buzz?

I have learned alot about my wife's job just from talking with her on a regular basis. I even give people advice on stuff she would consider trivial basic knowledge.

With congresses approval rating at 15%, who the hell would want to say they have experience. Experience doing what, sucking.

I think you have to give hillary some credit for being so close to the presidency. She knows more what is required and the workings of the WH than anyone else in the race possibly could. Even if she wasn't making the calls, she lived it.
That said, any decent candidate with a strong intellect can manage. Our history is full of pres's who didn't have extensive experience.

People keep saying Obama doesn't have the experience to lead the country.....So I ask what experience does hillary have.Including his years in the Illinois senate, Obama actually has more experience as a politician than Hillary.
But if you keep saying something over and over that isn't true, eventually people start to believe it. And her media campaign has managed to get the false "Obama doesn't have enough experience but I have it" idea repeated enough times for people to actually believe it.
Even if we give Hillary some "experience credits" for Bill's years in office, that's the type of experience we DON'T want, because if she really learned that much from Bill, her being elected would essentially be like having Bill for a third term, which is a roundabout away around the term limits.

Yes, and Mrs Favre will be starting for the Packers this weekend for the same reason.

If you haven't experienced life by 25, you should give up.
