She will be able to learn from Sen. McCain and grow into the job if God forbid something happened to Sen. McCain. Gov. Palin has been a mayor and now governor of a state. She has had to balance budgets, oversee municipal, and state employees, make appointments to various boards and committees. Se has adminstrative experience. Sen. Obama has not had any administrative experience. Sen. Obama's claim to fame has been he was a community organizer, a state senator, and now U.s senator for 2 years and been campaigning for president for 18 months so only about 6 months in Washington before running. Sen. Obama if elected will be the president learning on the job. I am sorry but the presidency is not a place for on the job training. In short,Gov. Palin will be learning at the foot of the master.Johnny G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01348083331545213601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183763439269067724.post-28175793830101101422008-10-29T12:44:00.000-04:002008-10-29T12:44:00.000-04:00I agree with you - this election probably *is* the...I agree with you - this election probably *is* the most important election in our lifetime. With that said, I've been in a real quandary about who to vote for.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you about all of the reasons not to vote for Barack Obama. However, at least to me there is one compelling reason not to vote for John McCain: Sarah Palin. If something were to happen to him, I truly do not believe she is qualified to lead our nation in his place. I also believe that she makes George W. Bush look like a rocket scientist in comparison.<BR/><BR/>This will also be the first election my son will be able to vote in. He told me that he's effectively going to throw his vote away and vote for Ralph Nader. I've asked him to reconsider doing that, but I can't blame him as he holds the same view I do about this one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03159620314795295144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183763439269067724.post-52708453456654627032008-10-29T10:00:00.000-04:002008-10-29T10:00:00.000-04:00Linda should know, she works in that field. People...Linda should know, she works in that field. People always think that its greener on the other side of the fence. More often than not, it is NOT better. We do have a great system now, yes, there is room for improvement, we still have the best medical health care system in the world. How do we know? People are coming here for treatment. This change is not necessary, and remember there is no going back.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17872084830715635999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183763439269067724.post-67946463761299605622008-10-28T19:16:00.000-04:002008-10-28T19:16:00.000-04:00if you want a taste of what universal medicine is ...if you want a taste of what universal medicine is like just look at the state of mass. athough i do not live there i work there and i have health insurance through my job.all i can say is my doctor now have to work in auburn and webster and if i want to see him i have 2 days to choose from .there are not enough doctors or health care workers and were paying the price for it, oh and by the way the gov. of mass. last month said the state will be 1 billion dollars in debt this year. do you think it dosen't effect you in other states think again, mass. is being assist by medicare with its health care shortage for people who can not afford regular health care.i personaly know several people who are self employed and have opted to pay the fine at the end of the year rather then buy insurance they can't afford.now thats real democratic isn't it.lindalindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891034342833591303noreply@blogger.com
