LOL...You got me there David. It was a headline on my Refdesk news ticker and surprised me. That is why I ran it past Snoops and posted it on this slow rainy Saturday morning.

I'd much rather see a less government conservative green president than a government should be more involved in peoples lives liberal green president. The later is dangerous and can do a lot more damage than has already been done in my opinion.

Enter Obama.
I would agree we should worry if you didn't have Congress. Personally I don't think he really has a chance of changing too many policies, but it would be great to see a fresh face.

Unless you know him, these "not enough experience" bs isn't true. If you think he is running prematurely, blame me.

He doesn't have a lot of political experience, you don't need to know him to know that.

It appears the experience makes little difference. If it did perhaps much more would have been accomplished by those who claim to have so much of it. But in fact the record of those who claim to have it is in reality pathetic.

He is a junior senator

i don't get your point, it's ok for obama to not have experience because those that claimed to have it didn't?

imo, both situations suck, because either way we wind up with an inexperienced president.

One of these days an educated businessman will run for President and put these damn politicians out of a job. We need a CEO type to run USA Inc, not politicians (regardless of political party)
