Yep. Obama is still unqualified to be President.
He met all the qualifications to be President, natural born citizen, over 35 years, and been a resident for 14 years within the United States.
Those are the qualifications for President. No other job can prepare you for the rigors of the Presidency of the United States.
Until we get some real campaign finance reform, change election laws, we are stuck with the choice of one of two corporate clowns every four years.
We all know the technical requirements.
The idea that nothing you have done in real life can compare you for the Presidency is a little misleading.
I agree that deciding to launch a nuclear strike against the Soviets is unique, other things are not.
Running the Federal Government is the same as running a state or a company, just bigger.
Having a background or interest in military affairs can make a lot of the decisions a president makes about the military that are not war related easier.
Having management experience either in business of smaller governments can make team building in your administration easier.
I know that anytyhing we say about Obama is going to be framed as racially motivated, but Obama has the least practical experience of anyone that has ever ran for office!
