Reply #34: I briefly supported Biden

[Tom Rinaldo]

until it became obvious he didn't have a chance in Iowa. I would likely have supported Dodd if I ever thought he had a chance in Iowa. I wanted Clark, Gore or Feingold.

But Hillary Clinton has been in the U.S. Senate for 7 years compared to Obama's three years, and she was an important part of an 8 year Democratic Presidency before that. She does know many world leaders, she has dealt with them before.

I know many Obama supporters want to discount Hillary's time in the White House, and her time as First Lady of Arkansas also. I don't. We can disagree on that but by and large the American people take my side in that debate. Democratic voters in the primaries have also. Hillary is always ranked higher on experience than Obama, even if experience isn't always the top priority for Democratic primary voters.

The last time America elected a President Barack Obama was sitting in a State Legislature.
