the author thinks obama’s experience was adequate but not cruz’s. Obama already set a low bar now he wants to move the bar for others
In a pig's eye!
Who the Hell is this punk or feeble writer?
Not even qualified to polish Senator's Cruz's shoes.

Cruz has tons more experience than Obama in terms of experience that matters.
Herzik is a second rate Poli Sci prof at a third rate university. That the Austin desk of this rag needed to quote Herzik immediately disqualifies the message and characterizes it as not serious.
Enrique here is out of the Austin bureau. In Austin, you need a sieve to tell who’s a Texan and who’s from Moscow.
This guy makes it pretty clear, maybe.
“To compare Mr. Obama’s resume to his [Cruz] is ludicrous, much less their documented educational backgrounds.”
Yes, but Obama knew billionaire terrorist William Ayers, who picked him out, brought him along, and launched him into thug Chicago politics. Add that he can read a heck of a teleprompter, it was a potent combination. No experience needed.
He sees the debate through pre existing bias. Back bencher state senator, or arguing cases before SCOTUS on behalf of Texas? Which takes more wherewithall?
You can’t talk about Obama’s experience without mentioning ice cream scooping.
That counts for something, doesn’t it?
Perry was left out for three good reasons. He doesn’t excite a broad spectrum of voters, he doesn’t speak well under pressure, and . . . um . . . I forgot the third reason.
Who in the hell is herzik?
Many people criticized (President) Barack Obama for not having enough experience but Cruz has a lot less, Herzik explained. Hes been a senator for two years and now he is running for president.
At least Obama served four years in the (U.S) Senate and had been a state senator (for seven years in Illinois).
I realize reporters aren’t all that great in math, but I think this one is simply FLAT OUT LYING. Even reporters hoping to get a Bachelor’s Degree have to take at least one math class in college.
Obama was US Senator from 2005 to 2009 (4 years)
Cruz* will be US Senator from 2013 to 2017 (4 years)
(*if he wins)
The math isn’t that hard.
It's getting to be pathetic how they keep taking ineffectual swipes and never seem to be in touch with any form of reality.
What a clown. Obama and Cruz with same exact US senate time served before launching presidential campaign. Except Obama was a do nothing back bencher. Cruz is the leading conservative.
By December at least 5 of the canidates would have dropped out.
I can see Rand Paul, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, John K, , Linda Graham, Gilmore drop out by December.
Rick Perry, what a jerk, a$$hole.
I guess I better start blaming ( sarcastically ) Ted Cruz for everything.
Dag nabit !!
Ted Cruz ! You just lost my vote, Ted Cruz ? I blame you for ? Well, my blue cheese is, well, BLUE ! DAG NABIT !
