So if you could create your own slate who would be your dream ticket? :bonk:

I was captain of a junior major football team and producer of a weekly live worldwide internet sports broadcast. If any leadership experience is good, i'm fit to run for president right?

Your candidate of choice has as little experience as everyone else in the campaign, save for the Democratic VP candidate. Get over it. You can't pull any old "leadership" experience out of a hat and use it as executive leadership experience.

Actually mine would have been Romney/Rice.
What about Dems?

Didn't think much about them but from what I recall from researching (I'm a political junkie) I'd say... (stand by for major flames)

Mark Warner
Tom Vilsack

BTW..Romney/Hutchinson would have been the better ticket choice, purely from background,experience, values, record, etc..

Yup, I was a big McCain fan in 2000. Probably would've voted for him if I hadn't found out about his illegitimate black child.

Far cry from the McCain of today. What a sad decline to watch.

• You couldn't get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.
• You couldn't become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.
• You couldn't get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 days of experience.
• You couldn't join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.
• You couldn't get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience.
BUT....
• 'From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate.
• That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working.
• After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK and Ronald Reagan. 143 days?

We all have to start somewhere. The senate is a good start, but after 143 days, that's all it is - a start.

AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public seems to feel comfortable with this and campaigning for him.

I guess you could say the same thing about Palin but it wouldnt be true because she has done more then Obama ever has

Russia sounds awesome this time of year. So does Iran, Pakistan (or are they still our "friend"), and North Korea.

Your stupid.

Here's the grand wizard Rove talking about Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine prior to Obama's VP pick:

"With all due respect, again, to Governor Kaine, he's been a governor for three years. He's been able, but undistinguished. I don't think people could really name a big, important thing that he's done. He was mayor of the 105th-largest city in America. And, again, with all due respect to Richmond, Virginia, it's smaller than Chula Vista, California, Aurora, Colorado, Mesa or Gilbert, Arizona, North Las Vegas, or Henderson, Nevada. It's not a big town. If he were to pick Governor Kaine, it would be an intensely political choice, where he's said, 'You know what? I'm really not first and foremost concerned with, is this person capable of being president of the United States? What I'm concerned about is, can he bring me the electoral votes of the state of Virginia, the 13 electoral votes in Virginia?'"

What do you think his assessment of Palin is using the same standard? :crazy: :crazy: :banghead:
