I don’t care what he says I can’t support a congressman for president, Legislators make bad executives.

The man needs executive not legislative experience.
* Run a company.

* Join a leadership roll in the miltiary (The miltiary is all executive(working with others to carry out the lawful mandates.))

* Run for local or State executive office.

There are a lot of ways Mike Pence can get executive experience and demonstrate his qualifying executive skills.

The point is I cannot support a man running for president if he has not executive experience demonstrating his executive skills. Sorry Mike, no Presidency till you got yourself executive experience.

Anyone can name 50 people that met your "executive experience" qualifications, that would be poor choices.

1. Donald Trump

2. Jack Welsh

And on and on.

I will take MR.Pence's values over any of your qualifications. .

Legislators make bad executives

How so? Also, please be specific as this applies to Michael Pence.

I am not up on Presidential Powers. I often wonder what a good President with Spunk could do in his first day to eliminate a lot of our mess. I think he might be able to cancel out a lot of the mess quick quick.

“Legislators make bad executives.”

How so?

By the way, regarding Mike Pence: He was named president of a conservative state think tank based in Fort Wayne, Indiana known as the Indiana Policy Review Foundation.

Pence began his career in radio broadcasting in 1992 and two years later, Network Indiana syndicated his show throughout the state of Indiana. “The Mike Pence Show” aired Monday through Friday on 18 stations. He also hosted a Sunday morning political television show in Indianapolis from 1995-1999.

Looks to me like he had some executive experience. ;-)

Also: The ACU honored Congressman Pence in 2006 with the Courage Under Fire Award, which recognizes those who have stood for principle when doing so puts them at risk physically, politically or economically. Past recipients include Charlton Heston, Wayne LaPierre, and Ambassador John Bolton.

In 2005, Congressman Pence was named “Man of the Year” by the leading conservative publication Human Events for his leadership on behalf of fiscal discipline. Previous honorees include President Ronald Reagan and the late Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist and Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia.

You might want to reconsider Mike Pence.

Everything else being equal, I definitely favor a person w/executive experience. I regard governorships as the natural stepping stone to the Presidency. Being one of 435 or 100 allows deceptions and fakes and deals in voting. The Presidency is a not an entry level executive job.

Still, when “everything” is not equal, I'll vote for a conservative without executive experience vs. a Leftie with it every time.
