Washington’s positions were not elected positions, however, you are correct that Lincoln did hold two elected offices before becoming President. One at the state level and one at the federal level. My bad.
TRUMP will surround himself with the brightest and best and get rid of those who put PC before their military duties.
I’m concerned that Hillary Clinton flunked the DC Bar exam and what this says about this self-proclaimed smartest woman in America. Somehow I never heard about it on NBC, but I guess its because they didn’t have their “sleuth” reporter Andrea Mitchell looking into it, too busy with Trump.
No experience in politics, coupled with brains, brashness and common sense is a plus.

Exactly the way I think about Supreme Court nominees. There’s no rule that say they have to be lawyers.
I don’t know of one person that thinks Donald lacks experience.
yep
nobody asked me and it’s a meaningless NBC Clinton loving poll.
Donald is a brilliant business man/CEO who has proven time and time again he knows how to get things done.
Where was Obama’s experience except as a community organizer who was raised a Muslim and mentored by muzzies and commies??
Apparently political experience did not concern the framers of the Constitution. They didn’t include it as a prerequisite for the job.
Yeah because - Obama’s been so great given his years of experience at _________[?]
Maybe there is a worry that Trump will make other Presidents look bad.
I’m worried about her experience as a lying criminal and her husband’s experience as a rapist.
Trump’s experience is that he hires the best people he can to advise him and make sure he has a firm grasp on any specific issue. Then, he makes the decision and takes responsibility for it.
