3. Just so you know, Biden has little public sector experience as he became a
public defender after law school, then immediately went into public service.

4. What executive experience does Hillary have exactly?
It says 8 years, are they counting being wife of the president as executive experience?

5. So, Huckabee, born in 1955, has only had an occupation for 25.5 years? Who supported him the rest
of his adult life?

6. First Lady counts as Executive/Managerial? What a Crock.
Hillary was a Corporate lawyer/Wal-Mart Board Member
Obama was a Constitutional/Civil Rights Lawyer/Lecturer

edge: Obama
Civil Rights trump Corporate Rights

*

Hillary was First Lady for 8 years
Obama was an Illinois State Senator for 8 years

edge: Obama
Actual election into office and real legislative experience trump being First Lady

*

Hillary has been in the US Senate for 7 years.
Obama has been in the US Senate for 3 years.

edge: Draw
Though Clinton has served more years in the Senate, it was during this time that she voted for the IWR, the Patriot Act, and the Kyl-Lieberman Amendment. More years served do not mean more good decisions.

*

So tell me again,
Where is the Experience Gap?

7. Like I keep saying,
Richardson has the best all-around resume of the bunch. (Despite what the Hillary camp says. I don't buy First Lady as executive experience. At least, it doesn't count the same as being Governor does, in my book.)

8. Richardson has both the resume, and 40 years of history on his side.
Apparently he's turned his back on the DLC, which is another huge plus, but it also explains why the Whore Media ignores him.
