“What sort of experience does one need?” I cannot believe this question. The list of experience and demonstrated competence needed for the most important job in the country, if not the world, is as long as my arm.

You have to look no further than South Africa to see the immense harm that has been caused by inexperienced people occupying posts in government and essential services. Not to mention the farce of AA and BEE. Or the immense harm caused by peecee liberals like yourself, who operate purely from a basis of groupspeak psychobabble, not experience or independent thought.

Are you serious to ask what’s wrong with being like Bush. The man has been a disaster for the US and the rest of the world. And his first election was stolen – the Supreme Court’s decision in Gore vs. Bush is a disgrace.

What kind of experience does one need? Five years as a POW in Vietnam? Governor of a state with a population slightly greater than that of Khayelitsha? Americans are voting for Obama because he’s got a vision for the US that it desperately needs right now.

Please do those of us that can actually use our brains for something more than trying to be Mr COOL at all cost, and help Obama some more so that you can get the government you deserve, as the peecee liberals in South Africa are experiencing right now. Of course now they are bailing out as fast as they can to avoid the result of their arrogant, self-centered actions when they “helped” to place the ANC into power.

In South Africa politicians are also “elected” on the basis of race and inflammatory rhetoric and not demonstrated competence. I hope you get what you wish for and, in the process shed some of that white guilt which is obviously in your way as a COOL psuedoYank.
