Okay, tell me what office or government position he’s held? We have NEVER elected ANYONE without that prerequisite to that position. All 44 presidents have held office or a high-level government position (or both) before their election to the presidency.

Well, in 2008 we elected someone with absolutely zero qualification for president except his ability to read a teleprompter. He may have been a Senator for two years, but he NEVER had any achievement to speak of, no legislation he authored, and nothing he had done in his entire life to show he could be president.

He broke the mold, at this point, you can't use the point you just made against anyone, yes?

I know.

I agree.

I hope he keeps talking up conservatism though!

The field will naturally shrink.
