36. What do you not get about the fact that one doesn't have to hold elected office to have experience?
I think her White House experience is more valuable to the presidency than Obama's state senate experience, which really wouldn't give one much insight into how to run the country. Hillary saw it first hand and served as an advisor to her husband - she knows how it works. Additonally, she has served 7 years as a U.S. Senator, so no one's asking to elect her solely because she was first lady. While that experience was certainly valuable and important, I don't think it's enough.
