And what has extensive governing experience gotten us? 15 trillion in debt, open borders, trade agreements that favor anyone BUT us, weak foreign policy...the list is endless.

I’d rather a non-pol who has his heart in the right place.

“I’d rather a non-pol who has his heart in the right place.”

Do you really hear yourself?

Lots of people have their hearts in the right place, and accomplish ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Having “good intentions” is not going to pay the piper, and more often than not going to cause more problems.

INEXEPRIENCE is NEVER a valid argument for someone to get a job.

Go pick up your newspaper, or craigslist or go to Monster.com or whever, do you ever see a job where “NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED” paid better than a job that required it? Go count the ads, and tell me, other than entry level sales positions, how many ads even state “NO EXPERIENCE NECCESSARY”???

There is a reason experienced folks are sought out for positions and are better rewarded for them than inexperienced.. To think that Politics for some reason should be the counter example to every other job in the world is insanity!

You go find yourself a kid with no experience with a good hear, and hand him the CEO position of GE.. and then tell me a year later how it was a good move.

SERIOUSLY THINK PEOPLE!!! THINK!!!!

I know everyone wants a Reagan, but there isn’t one this election cycle, and Cain sure as hell not even close. Reagan had years of governmental executive experience and DECADES of conservative thought, writing and action prior to going to being elected in 1980!

He didn’t just show up, say a few things folks wanted to hear, and they all went “awe, his hearts in the right place”.

THINK!!! We already have a romper room administration, and they’ve created a mess that will take decades to clean up, and we can’t afford a neophite to follow the current one up, no matter how “good of a heart” you think he has.

The argument that he’s inexperienced in government is a good thing when wanting to be the head of the executive arm of our governent is flat out idiotic on its face.

You aren’t hiring someone to shovel the snow off your walk, where if that 8 year old doesn’t do a good job it’s okay.. because his hearts in the right place. This job has nuclear consequences, both figuratively and literally to the entire world, and someone with no governmental experience at all, is not a selling point for you getting the job.
