No....but I'm sure he walked past the local hot dog stands and lemonade stands and said, "You didn't build that" :)

LOL!!!! You are just toooo funny!

He has described himself (on more than one occasion) as lazy. Those are his words. I think the American people have seen enough to concur. Even his "fans" are critical of him being so disengaged from reality. But what irks me the most is when his fan base equates legitimate criticism with personal/racial/religious attacks on him.

I agree completely. I don't think Obama wants the job of being president - he just wants the perks (A sentiment that I believe was expressed by Ed Klein in "The Amateur")

It also drives me crazy (OK - short drive, I know) when his supporters play the racist card. I do not care if he is black, white or green with purple polka dots. I disagree with his policies and feel that America is on the wrong road.

(much more so than the Palin family circus)

In all fairness (and let me state for the record that I am no big Palin fan either), it was the main scream media that started much of that circus.

While there can be exceptions, as a general guideline I think a president should have at least one full-term experience as a governor. Doesn't mean a full-term governor will be better - but at least they've had some level of experience as an executive.

Some real experience running a private sector business and having to do things like make payroll would also be extremely helpful.
