Really? Before he was a US Senator, he was a “community organizer”. How is that a qualification for the Presidency?
Do a little research and you'll see that he has been much more than a community organizer.
I guess my point is that we would be making a big mistake to dismiss Obama as a weak or weird candidate. He's not. If he gets the Democratic nomination, he's going to be a much stronger candidate than the comments on this thread would lead one to believe.
I wish my resume was as impressive as Barack's.
Given the strong anti-GOP sentiment that seems to have permeated the public, I think Obama would have a very good chance to defeat McCain.
