...but the office of President is not an "entry level" position.Succeeding as an elected official requires certain skill sets not easily acquired outside of the "rough and tumble" of the political battlefield.
We need someone as Pressident who can win the political battles, but remain uncorrupted by the political "elite" in Washington, DC.That is, we need someone like Sarah Palin, IMHO.
Oh really... can you say Obama?????????
All you have to do is promise the Blacks and Mexicans free stuff,, your in!!!!!!!
“but the office of President is not an “entry level” position.”
The office of POTUS is unique, like no other. A true leader possesses those qualities that prepare him (or her) to rise to the task, however. We’ve had too many politicians in our history occupy the White House (including the current one) who were NOT leaders.
“Succeeding as an elected official requires certain skill sets not easily acquired outside of the “rough and tumble” of the political battlefield.”
Being CEO and President of top companies (as HC was) required political finesse to deal with both those below him (employees) and those above him (board of directors). Also, President of the National Restaurant Association (as he was) is an elected office and quite political. (The husband of a good friend of mine held that position for two terms, and she told me many stories of the demands and politics that were required in that life.
“We need someone as President who can win the political battles, but remain uncorrupted by the political “elite” in Washington, DC.”
HC is quite savvy, articulate and capable of fighting any battle with any candidate (even The One:-))) Because of his personal and career experiences, he’s not easily impressed, and his upbringing, deep faith and love of this country will protect him from corruption. He’s been around many elites over the course of his life and no doubt passed a lot of character tests.
He’s more than ready for prime time.
