Qualified is the person with the most votes at the end of the election *. It is, for better or worse what makes our Democratic Republic the best of the best.
* Not counting the silliness of the Supreme Court decisions or the debate between Electoral or Popular vote.
Here's just a tiny smattering of opinion suggesting that inexperience and race will be key factors in the election:
There you go, another intentional misrepresentation of the opposition to Bush's private, illegal war as holding the troops responsible for being sent to invade Iraq without cause. Weak. You must be hurting to be hanging on to that one. Jim
That's me, WEAK, that is why I post here.

I waited. 0900 passed. I even gave the benefit of the doubt and assumed 0900 PDT. It passed. Then I decided to wait until 0900 Hawaii time. It is now 0909 HDT. Aloha.
At this point NOTHING on this BS of a story has had any level of truth or credibility to it.
OK, technically it is ONLY 8:10 in Pago Pago, American Samoa.
A commenter clued me in on a site called Ex-Hillary Supporters For John McCain and some comments left by the site owner Ed recently about the “Whitey” Michelle Obama tape. He purports to have heard two minutes of the tape over the phone. Here he is answering questions from visitors on this site:
Yes, I heard about 2 minutes of her ranting at Bill Clinton and Hillary over the phone. Ed
Yes, it is a DVD, I only heard the audio part, they would not send me a sample. I understand that it is over 30 minutes long some of it had been edited. From what I was told, this will make every white American angry. What she thinks of the white America is disgusting. - Ed
The tape was made at the conference in June or July of 2004. It was of a conference at the Trinty church. Louis Farrahkan wife was there as was her body guards, who taped the event.
Yes, I trust this person very much. This person is not a “Republican”, in fact I don’t know what their political stand is. Also this is not a White person. I will not release this person name and prehaps I have said too much now. This person sent me a email asking me to call them. They said the reason they wanted me to know was that this web site has had almost a 1 million in less than a week. I was very surpirsed and honored that they choose me to talk to you. I will try and get them to release the DVD before the convention. I will use everything that God gave me to get this job done. I am a Texan and we don’t give up. ED
Please allow me to explain why this person will not release the DVD before the date as they have stated. one example is Doug Wilder, former governor of Va or WV, I cannot remember, said on more than one occasion,”If Obama does not get the nomination, then all blacks will consider it stole from Obama, and the riots of 1968 will be nothing compared to those of 2008″.
More than just this leader has made those statements. The person that has the DVD is afraid to release it before the date they have set. They do not want to be the person that started the riots. This person feels that all the thugs are waiting on is a reason to start and destroy this country. The reason I was told and allowed to hear it, was because I could tell everyone it exist and that Obama will not be the president, that was the reason I was given. I understand this person position and I respect them. I cannot and will not violate their trust in me. Even if this mean Hillary is not our nominee, I cannot help it. Thanks for your time and understanding - Ed
No idea who this Ed guy is nor how reliable he is. Some in this thread say they read that Ed stated the tape was to be released in November, I can’t find it on the page and he says in the comments that he took down some information from the front page for “safety reasons.”
Avoiding the 96 degree 75% humidity thingie for a while. Worked from 7am til noon and will start again in about an hour til midnight if ankle holds out.
Something about carrying 250 20# boxes up and down steps that just doesn't like the heat any more. I have the movers coming for the heavy stuff Wednesday but I could not get a schedule for everything until July.
For heaven's sake bear! Break down and hire the move done for you and/or w/ your supervision. I know you can afford it financially, and your body will thank you in the end--of the move that is.
Here's just a tiny smattering of opinion suggesting that inexperience and race will be key factors in the election:
The MOST experienced Presidential candidate we have had in my lifetime would have had to be Nixon. US Navy, US House in 1946, US Senate, Vice President, Presidential Candidate in 1960 and then he won the White House in 1968.
We had the start of the Highest Inflation in this country's history under Nixon Economic policies. 11-12% inflation rates were common in his second term. The first Gas Crisis was in 1973.
He built the largest increase in federal government to that date [eclipsed by Reagan and Bush1.1] and instituted Wage and Price Controls.
With Vietnam, he continued to let the war linger for another 5 years with another 20,000 killed in process.
And then there was that little Watergate thing.
Experience is an interesting thing. While everyone likes to talk about the positives that comes with experience, most of the time there is also tremendous baggage that is also associated. When you need a change agent, baggage is not an option.
For heaven's sake bear! Break down and hire the move done for you and/or w/ your supervision. I know you can afford it financially, and your body will thank you in the end--of the move that is.
I do hire the movers to do most of the stuff but not the antiques and very breakables that can't be replaced. That is what all this is. Movers get to do everything else.
HINT: the tape was promised, not another update of another person who says he heard the tape. More BS. NO Substance.
Its true, its all heresay. Until we see and hear an actual tape, there is no evidence. I'm just hoping that if there is a tape that its released NOW!. I could care less about an October surprise from the Republicans.
