YOu didn’t. Tupelo did. I was posting to Tupelo. Does it show I was posting to you on your browser?
And to me it’s not about Walker V Cruz at this point. I can make a great case for both men, and would be happy to vote for either man, or the pair as a ticket. But the idea that Cruz doesn’t “have X or Y experience” or whatever is just not important today.
The President is NOT an administrator. He’s a leader, a direction setter, a potentially inspirational figure. Managing bureaucrats is no longer the skill set needed.
I think both men can fit the bill described above.
You began your comment, which was addressed to me, with “leo, leo, leo...” I assumed from that you were directing the comment at least partially to me.
The issue isn’t so much that the President is an administrator as much as he’s a CEO. The President is not dictating to the rank and file IRS agents in Cincinnati. He is, however, dictating to the director of the IRS. A skilled CEO puts the right managers in place, the executive branch of the Federal government unfortunately is so big that the skills of a CEO are necessary for a President.
One of the reasons why Obama is so bad is he has no managerial skills. As such, he’s frozen when incompetence takes place within the Federal government. He doesn’t ask the right questions, in fact he doesn’t ask questions at all. If Obama had Reagan’s managerial skills, he would be far more dangerous than he is right now. Heck, if he had Bush’s managerial skills he would be much more dangerous. What I want to make sure is that the GOP doesn’t nominate someone with all the right ideas and no idea how to implement them. I want both, someone with the right ideas and who knows what he’s doing.
