Obama Not Qualified

Mayor, City, Councilor, and PTA member? Wow, maybe I should run for President. The fact of the matter is Palin has no experience on the national stage. She is not attuned with the issues that are important to the rest of the country, better know how to solve these issues. Did you notice that none of the time during her speech was dedicated to providing insight into what programs she would install to help out Americans? How ironic that someone who accuses the opposition of having only "authored two memoirs" has herself only given one decent speech.

More importantly, Republicans seem to believe that America will forget that John McCain is actually who has the first name on the ticket. Maybe this is in hopes that Americans will overlook his continued support of the failed policies of the Bush administration.

Obama Not Qualified

you forgot to mention that obama has a doctorate of law from harvard, magna cum laude - this argument that palin has more 'executive' experience than obama is ridiculous - in fact, she has more 'executive' experience than obama, biden, and mccain combined, if you want to take that ludicrous argument to its logical conclusion -

Obama Not Qualified

The Junior Senator Bacrack H. Obama and Governor Palin are well educated individuals. B.H.O.'s resume has him as a community organizer who snorted cocaine, a Junior Senator, voted present 131 times with NO executive experience and has voted 100% of the time along party lines. He is connected with the corrupt Chicago Daley gang; is supported by an infamous narcissistic reverend and priest; has close ties with two convicted felons Tony Rezko and Williams Ayers and until recently his wife was not prode of America.

On the other side, Sarah Palin`s resume includes her 14 years of executive experience as Governor, Commander of the National Guard in Alaska, former Mayor, City Councilor; PTA member and who does not snort cocaine Her eldest son, to serve his country, enlisted in the army and is scheduled for deployment in Iraq. From a heart beat, her experience as a mother of five alone qualifies her for commander and chief.Keep smiling...
