Voters need to be better educated on the meaning of experience.

McCain has experience campaigning 3 times for President.

McCain has experience crashing 5 planes in the Navy.

McCain has experience getting another marriage license before his divorce was approved.

McCain has experience picking an unqualified person for his VP.

McCain has experience voting over 90% of the time with the President.


But those are NOT the right experiences that are needed for one to be President.

He has never had any executive experience as his ad suggests.

He has never demonstrated that he does know how to fix the economy or any other troubles we have in this country. Just says he knows how to do it.

1. Based on experience, Strom Thurmond should have been president. (nt)

2. Imo, we should be talking about QUALIFICATIONS (education, intelligence, work, and life experence)

3. Exeperience is only one part of what qualifies a person for a position.

If I was hiring an employee, and I had one person with some experience in a similar job in the field, but who was cranky, erratic, and full of old bad ideas.... experience wouldn't matter at all.

And then if another potential employee has less experience, is relatively new to the field, but is bright, personable, full of excellent ideas, and seems to be able to handle anything, I might *like* a little more experience, but his other qualities make me confident that he'll do well.
