Experience

Get RealBy VictorM:

Hillary Clinton is making "experience" a big issue in her presidential campaign, particularly in terms of qualifications to be commander-in-chief. Despite the obvious that neither her husband in 1992, nor she now, came to the race with commander-in-chief experience, Senator Clinton is further saying that John "Bush's 3rd term" McCain meets that qualification. Get real, Hillary!

Experience isn't what happens to you; experience is what you do with what happens to you. With this in mind, is John McCain really qualified? I don't think so. I agree with Georgia10:

What does John McCain present today that pushes him past the "commander in chief threshold"?

Is it his joking and singing about bombing Iran? Is it his promise that "there will be more wars"? Is it his belief that the nation's spying apparatus should be turned upon its people?...

His claim that we should remain in Iraq for 100 years? His dishonest accusations that his political opponents want to "wave the white flag of surrender"? Or is it his insistence on sending more troops into a quagmire?

Commander-in-chief experience only comes with on-the-job training. And some leaders, like George Bush, never get it right. McCain promises to be an equal failure.
