He lead a community programme once. I think. Then again what did Bush Junior lead before Office? His business dealings never went very well.

He is the leader of.........change.

Does it matter if he had been a mayor or governor? It might help, but being a President is unlike being a mayor or governor, they are all separate jobs. Being President in the U.S does not mean you are all alone guiding people. Being President is about teamwork and collective thinking, overall he has a final say but the President does not run this country alone. Just like the mayor and governor are part of the team.

He led the Annenberg Challenge program which funnelled $110M into radical causes instead of real education programs such as teaching algebra. IWO, it was Pure Pork for William Ayers and his pals.

Bush did very well with The Texas Rangers.

According to Obama himself, he is qualified to be President because he has led his campaign for 1.5 years.

Being an executive means you MUST take responsibility for your decisions. It means having to make a decision. Unlike being an Illinois legislator and voting present on difficult votes. As a Senator, he missed 45% of his votes last session. If you recal, he tried to insult McCain for supporting Bush 90% of the time.(keep in mind, coming from the same party, this isn't unreasonable) On the other side of that coin, Barrack voted along party lines (when he voted) 96% of the time. Gosh, supporting a do-nothing Democrat controlled Congress on almost every vote. Is he a leader or a tow-the-party-line lap dog?

No kidding....and if he loses does that mean he has failed at his only executive position? Does that eliminate him from running again?

I am really disliking the threat of racially motivated violence that is being spread around if he loses. I'm not going to vote for Obama - and it has absolutely nothing to do with his race. My decision is based upon his extreme lack of accomplishments in a position of real authority and accountability - and his functionally illiterate economic policies which will send not just the U.S. but the entire world into a depression if fully implemented.
