This is all Obamas site lists:
law degree from Harvard in 1991
president of the Harvard Law Review
practice as a civil rights lawyer (Minor role as a community organizer, not an actual lawyer)
taught constitutional law (Which is crap, cause if he actually did, he would realize the constitution does not authorize ANYTHING he's proposing)
State Senate, where he served for eight years (Mostly absent)
Earned Income Tax Credit, which in three years provided over $100 million in tax cuts to families (Like what happened nationally by a republican, and the bill was proposed by a Rep.)
He has also been the lead voice in championing ethics reform that would root out Jack Abramoff-style corruption in Congress. (Which didn't work)
a measure to rebuild trust in government by allowing every American to go online and see how and where every dime of their tax dollars is spent.(which is already in the constitution anyway)
In 2004, he became the third African American since Reconstruction to be elected to the U.S. Senate.
As a member of the Veterans' Affairs Committee, Senator Obama has fought to help Illinois veterans get the disability pay they were promised, while working to prepare the VA for the return of the thousands of veterans who will need care after Iraq and Afghanistan(Didn't work that well.)
There is not one Fortune 500 company that would make Obama the CEO. He simply does not have the experience or qualifications for the job.
Obama mania reminds me of an episode of Will & Grace. Yes I like that show. Anyway, they are getting active in some election. Will throws a fundraiser for the gay candidate and Grace throws one for the Jewish Woman. They have the fundraisers and find that the two people are just raving lunatics with radical views. They get depressed and decide not to vote...until Jack comes in and tells them he voted. They ask him who for and he says the black guy. Will and Grace look at each other and say there's a black guy! They then go running for the door to go vote.
So Obama is a fantastic speaker, black and liberal. That is enough for the Democrats. I mean it is not like they can expect a candidate with quality ideas for our country. So well spoken black and liberal should do quite nicely. Along with his connections... Tony Rezko, William Ayers, and Rashid Khalidi.
Mccain:
First elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Arizona in 1982
was elected to the United States Senate in 1986, after serving two terms in the U.S. House.
In November 2004, Senator McCain was overwhelmingly reelected with nearly 77 percent of the vote.
attended college at the United States Naval Academy, and launched a 22-year career as a naval aviator upon his graduation
John retired from the Navy in 1981. His naval honors include the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Legion of Merit, Purple Heart, and the Distinguished Flying Cross.
In the Senate, John continued to demand that Congress put an end to loopholes for special interests and fix the broken system in Washington that too often allows lobbyists to write legislation and members of Congress to waste taxpayer money. (Ofcourse the other politicians wouldn't listen, including Obama)
