Duncan Hunter = 3X that with 26.
And what's he got to show for it? He's not known to be a leader. No one knows who he is outside of California mostly. If wanted to run for POTUS, he should have done the necessaries beginning several years back.

BTW, your mathematics is misleading. Thompson has more than "8 years" of political experience.

“And what’s he got to show for it? He’s not known to be a leader”

I disagree. He is a very capable leader. What he isn’t is someone who slaps himself on the back and tells everyone, “Look at me, ain’t I great?”.

Maybe it’s time for us to move beyond the political grandstanders and those who owe favors to everyone and their brothers. Maybe it’s time we elected a man who doesn’t bow before the political elite. Duncan Hunter is his own man, he isn’t owned by anyone else. If he was, his election coffers would be full. Big donors don’t donate, they buy.

And Thompson is? lol!

No one knows who he is outside of California mostly.

And few knew of Thompson before his TV show. Does that make him any more quailfied?

If wanted to run for POTUS, he should have done the necessaries beginning several years back.

Is that what Thomopson did? No. His Hollywood experience is just that. It no more qualified him to be POTUS than Martin Sheen's playing a president qualified him.

BTW, your mathematics is misleading. Thompson has more than "8 years" of political experience.

Really? He has 8 yeras in the senate, nothing more. Unless you count lobbying as political experience which I don't.

If he would have spent the time getting known he would not have accomplished all the things he has accomplised.

Thompson has only 8 years of experience. Lobbying is not political experience.
