IMHO, there is no experience which prepares one for the Presidency when you think about the functions of Head of State and Commander-in-Chief. Governor or Congressman are not even close. It’s even a much different perspective than that of a General or Admiral.
It can be seen as a matter of degree. A three-year-old or someone mentally deficient would not qualify to be president. A senator or a governor might have the right stuff. So the range is somewhere in between. I just think Cain is not far enough toward the top of the range. It’s not an all-or-nothing type of thing. Does that make any sense? I know what I mean but might not be expressing it well.
