Obama has MORE "experience" than Hillary.

[RBInMaine]

I for one am tired of the HillFANS, who just like Hillary, keep harping about all her "experience"?? What experience? Walmart Board? Rose Law Firm? Sure, First Lady is valuable, but NOT NEARLY as valuable as how she inflates it with hokey made-up stories like SniperGate and IrelandGate and all the rest. Yes, she and her team have INFLATED her "experience" bigtime. She was NOT answering 3am calls. She was NOT negotiating peace treaties. She did NOT hold security clearance. And her legislative accomplishments? Nothing stellar. Obama has been a community organizer, law professor, has run MORE campaigns and has held MORE elective offices at MORE levels of government with MORE legislative accomplishments than Hillary. This "experience" argument by
team-Hillary is an EMPTY exaggeration. If aby HillFANS want to argue the opposite, kindly so with SPECIFICS for a refreshing change.

1. Well you gotta admit that she has a wealth of experience in Embellishing...

or lying if you like. She is a pro in this area.

[RBInMaine]

2. Yup! Hey, I'm not saying she has zero experience, but yes, she EXAGGERATES is BIGTIME !

[cali]

3. I actually do think that hilly has minimally more experience

than Obama, though it's certainly true that she shamefully and disgustingly lies and inflates her record. But it's not just about experience to me. She voted for war either out of craven opportunism or stupidity. Unforgivable.

9. In truth, neither of them has much to offer in the "experience" department.

[Muttocracy]

14. Yep. The three least experieced candidates placed in Iowa, so it is not about experience.

I don't like that, but the reality is other factors are deciding this nomination.

4. She started as a republican and now she's

acting like a republican. Her sense of entitlement is so remeniscient of Bush and all her rationalizing. You can't cut this cake to equal more than 100% and that means she's lost.

5. With more experience, you'll learn that attending an exclusive private Hawaiian prep school

..isn't really "foreign relations experience".

[Benhurst]

10. ...

:rofl:

[RBInMaine]

18. Neither are LIES about dodging sniper bullets and negotiating peace treaties.

[O.M.B.inOhio]

6. Here's one piece of Washington experience...

Her effort at major health care reform was an initiation into how Washington does things, and is highly valuable experience... especially if you learn best from failure. I think this was a piece of valuable experience for a president or a senator. However, neither this nor any of the exaggerations promoted by her campaign are greater than Obama's experience. And if all this experience were equal, or even if Clinton's experience in Washington's workings were greater, I would still choose Obama. He inspires Americans to be Americans. With him as Pres, the world might believe that we've changed. And he's more electable against McCain, because (among other reasons) running on "experience," Hillary's campaign is defining her best qualifications as areas where McCain's credentials are superior.

[Muttocracy]

15. like your last sentence

"Hillary's campaign is defining her best qualifications as areas where McCain's credentials are superior."

exactly the problem.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

7. Really and truly, it isn't about the experience they possess. It is

about who can inspire people to do. It is about who can get change to come from us. We are America, they are just one person. Sure the major decisions they make affect us all, but how we respond/react to them will be most important. I am ispired more by one candidate than the other. I feel more positive about the future with one candidate over the other. I feel that we will make less of a footprint on the world with one candidate over the other. I feel we may be a less hated people with one candidate over the other. These things are of more importance to me than grandiose claims of experience and unlimited calling at 3am.

13. Martin Luther King inspired; the president has to run the country

"We" aren't one of the problems that needs solving.

[RBInMaine]

17. No, the Prez MUST do both. But stop dodging and SPECIFICALLY give me Hilly's great advantage on

"experience." NO ONE, not one single Hillary fan has done so because you CAN'T.

[splat]

8. You're cherry-picking and inflating Obama's experience yourself (yawn)

[asteroid2003QQ47]

11. Drawing attention to the rbi...

modus operandi is a more than a little insensitive, splat. :toast:

[splat]

12. Sure, accuse me of being mature, see if I care

:toast: back at ya.

[RBInMaine]

16. At least I'm citing some things and, unlike Hillary, not merely CLAIMING to all this "experience."

So you tell me SPECIFICALLY where is "the beef" with Hillary and her claims of experience? SPECIFICALLY cite how her experience EXCEEDS that of Obama's.

[splat]

19. Like the man said, your m.o. doesn't promise a substantive discussion. skipped

[CTLawGuy]

20. and he has ACTUAL experience

not made up experience like dodging sniper fire to save the Bosnians.

[Zavulon]

21. Does Obama have experience ducking Bosnian sniper fire?

Oh, never mind, Hillary doesn't either :rofl:
