CSFO,

The current President, as Texas Governor, had executive experience coming into office.

reread my post, I included Bush 42.

But you do not think that GHWB experience as VP cannot be counted as executive

I think he also ran CIA at some point.

I did not say that Obama's biggest accomplishment is how he ran is campaign. For doubters of his decision making capability, his organization skill etc. I would like to point them towards his campaign.

That's exactly what some columnist (Joe Klein) called the campaign: self-referential.

It is vision and not experience that is the crying need of the hour.

Maybe one day, he will reveal to us what that vision is.

Hillary talks about the past and what she did to overcome them.

While I am certainly not Hillary fan, I see her as less of a risk. She is somewhat of a known quantity.

Joe
