Why should I post qualifications to those who clearly don't care?

You clearly have every right to keep it to yourself.

But those who are here reading your posts have every right and reason to presume that if you don't post them, they don't exist.

As to not caring, you couldn't be more wrong. If someone, anyone, could give me a true rationale for believing the man is qualified, I'd be very interested in hearing it.

The fact is that he is no more qualified than 100s or 1000s of other law school graduates who have entered local politics after graduation, and certainly far less qualified than many. He lacks ANY real experience in dealing with foreign policy matters, and his campaign blunders clearly reflect that. John McCain clearly has substantial experience in dealing with these matters -- as much as most any Senator can have. Obama has no military experience, which obviously McCain does, including his Senate experience related to the military.

Given that you are quick to voice your opinion on a broad array of topics, it is a little strange that on this subject, you suddenly decide you have to nothing to say, wouldn't you agree? Certainly, it is your prerogative, but a rational person would question why that is.

McCain vs Obama:

Let's compare the two:

John McCain was so loyal to the men he was imprisoned with he endured torture on their behalf.

Barack Obama associates with those who can help his career, and throws them right under the bus when they become inconvenient to his aspirations.

That single issue of character matters more than all the others combined. You can trust John McCain. You can trust Barack Obama to use you as a stepping stone.
