Furthermore, you do realize that to date, sixteen of our Presidents were either senators or had no "Executive Experience" before they became President of the United States, many who have not only made decent Presidents but Good Presidents as well. Three senators, Warren G. Harding, John F. Kennedy, and Barack Obama moved directly from the U.S. Senate to the White House.
