The Democrats' golden boy, Barack Obama, showed once again this week that he is not ready for the presidency. In trying to make himself appear to have experience, he's now claiming that "running for president" gives him experience to be president. That is the craziest thing I have ever heard. That would basically qualify anyone who runs for president to have the necessary experience. He was trying to draw contrast between himself and GOP Vice Presidential Nominee Gov. Sarah Palin. As noted on FOX News, in an interview Obama said:
"Well, my understanding is that Governor Palin's town of Wasilla has, I think, 50 employees. We've got 2,500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe $12 million a year. You know, we have a budget of about three times that just for the month. So I think that our ability to manage large systems and to execute I think has been made clear over the last couple of years," Obama said.
Second, Obama tries to compare his operation to Gov. Palin's by using budget and personnel numbers when she was MAYOR. The Obama campaign seems to forget that she is governor of Alaska. As McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds notes, "It is a testament to Barack Obama's inexperience and failing qualifications that he would stoop to passing off his candidacy as comparable to Governor Sarah Palin's executive experience managing a budget of over $10 billion and more than 24,000 employees."
Obama is too liberal and too inexperienced to be president. Hopefully America will see the light. There is too much at stake.
