I have heard both women speak, and would prefer Bachmann to Palin, although I would certainly support Palin if she were the nominee.

What kind of "foreign" experience does Bachmann have?

She can see Canada from her back yard?

Don't care. Any President is as good as her appointees. I am fairly sure I would prefer her appointments to those of the pres__ent. Plus, at the inauguration, we can have her appear with Turner and Overdrive.

As opposed to the "foreign" experience (or any prior experience in anything, foreign or domestic) of the current commie pig 0b0z0 or the previous lecherous Bubba Clinton who was AK governor before becoming president?

The demoRATS & their partisan media will always love to point out the supposed shortcomings of conservative candidates and just gloss over their own libturd's inexperience levels. I would say that either Bachmann or Palin have as much if not more experience than either the commie pig 0b0b0 or Bubba Clinton on all counts!

Virtually no presidential candidate ever has had "foreign experience" -- beyond foreign travel for business or for recreation.

Simply stated, it is governors who are the primary source of presidential timber, not the State Department. The last former Secretary of State who became a President was Thomas Jefferson.

Even if a Senator has served on the Foreign Relations Committee, would you consider them having qualifying "foreign experience"? I refer, of course, to the likes of John Kerry and Joe Biden.

For the most part, requiring "foreign experience" on a presidential resume' is a straw horse.

Fact of the matter is that Bachmann has no "foreign experience" and Palin has only a little (negotiating with Canada on a pipeline). It doesn't disqualify either.

I think they asked the same thing about Reagan. Sound principles seemed to work for him, as he used them to shape the foreigners’ experience with us.
