In looking at resumes, George H.W. Bush had greater qualifications than Hillary.

He was a congressman, U.N. Ambassador, CIA director, U.S. Envoy to China, and finally, 8 years as vice-president, before being elected president.

Of course, we don’t elect presidents based on these alleged resume qualifications. If we did, we never would have elected Obama, a one term governor such as Jimmy Carter, or someone such as General Eisenhower, who had no political experience in elective or appointed office before being elected.

This is a puff piece which is based on a very flawed premise to start with.

General Eisenhower, who had no political experience in elective or appointed office before being elected. .................................................... “LEADERSHIP” doesn’t have to be political, just proven. Remember IKE was drafted as a candidate, he wasn’t pursuing it. Find another IKE and bring back the Happy Days. Unfortunately there aren’t any IKE’s around anymore. Today’s heavily slanted Media would be all over him.
