Open Wide

What is with the Democrats and this fighting over ‘experience’? And I suppose we can even include McCain in this fight as well. Truth is; no one can be experienced in the role of President, except a former president and we don’t need one of those thankyouverymuch. Who was arguably one of our best presidents? Lincoln. With no experience. Zip. Nada. Being a one term Illinois legislator doesn’t count for much. And we’ve already seen what being part of a political family does for you in the way of ‘experience’. Me? I’m always going to vote for the one that isn’t part of the ‘in-crowd’, even if it’s a Republican. Or a Democrat. I want fresh ideas and fresh faces. Remember how Dubya resurrected his fathers’ advisors? And wasn’t that a brilliant strategy!

More truth; Americans have always resisted meaningful change. And just because they have done that for so long doesn’t mean it’s right or good. We need our eyes opened and soon.
