It’s very frustrating that one’s ability to govern isn’t the focus of who should be elected.

If your candidate has no experience for office, it is important to redefine experience as a negative. Hence, the "career politician" attack, the constant drumbeat of "professional politician" being a bad thing that would ruin our country.

None of these people would hire a person with no experience to fix their toilet, or re-wire their outlets, or build a deck. But they think the job of President is one where it would be fine to have a guy who has no training or experience that is relevant, who's biggest previous job was running a $40 million business with a few hundred employees, as an appointed CEO.

Well, the current class of professional politicians HAS just about ruined this country, so your argument is not the best one going.

Where do you come up with this crap? When Cain left, Godfather's was a nearly $300 million dollar business with over 10,000 employees.
