In The 109th Congress, Obama Was Lead Sponsor On 61 Bills. But Only One Of These (1.6%) Has Passed The Senate (The Bill Went On To Become Law).

Foreign Policy Credential Number #4: Visited Pakistan For Three Weeks While In College:

“To Counter Opponents’ Accusations That He Lacks Experience In Foreign Policy, Senator Barack Obama … Has Added A New Personal Detail To That Resume: A Trip To Pakistan While A College Student.” “To counter opponents’ accusations that he lacks experience in foreign policy, Senator Barack Obama of Illinois often cites his ties to relatives in poor villages in Kenya and the years he spent growing up in Indonesia. Now he has added a
new personal detail to that resume: a trip to Pakistan while a college student.” (Larry Rohter, “Obama Says Real-Life Experience Trumps Rivals’ Foreign Policy Credits,” The New York Times, 4/10/08)

Obama Spent “About Three Weeks” In Pakistan. “According to his campaign staff, Mr. Obama visited Pakistan in 1981, on the way back from Indonesia, where his mother and half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, were living. He spent ‘about three weeks’ there, Mr. Obama’s press secretary, Bill Burton, said, staying in Karachi with the family of a college friend, Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, but also traveling to Hyderabad, in India.” (Larry Rohter, “Obama Says Real-Life Experience Trump s Rivals’ Foreign Policy Credits,” The New
York Times, 4/10/08)

Foreign Policy Credential #5: Member Of Foreign Relations Committee …
Reluctantly.

“Listening To A Bloviating Colleague At His First Meeting Of The Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Obama Slipped A Three-Word Note To A Member Of His Staff: ‘Shoot. Me. Now.’” (Ben Wallace-Wells, “Destiny’s Child,” Rolling Stone, 2/7/07)

    I happen to think Obama does have adequate experience (well, almost adequate) and that he would be an okay candidate.

    Obama PROMISED to raise taxes. That will destroy our economy.

    I do not vote for racist/socialist/liars with no experience. The dude has been in the Senate for 3.5 years. Most of that time he’s been running for president!

    November 10, 2010 at 12:46

    First off. i’m not reading all of that. And he doesn’t know what he’s doing. i think young people are voting for him because he looks cool or he’s young or whatever. HE never said what he was going to do. But yet he critisizes what the other canidiates are saying what they are going to do if their in office

  13. Lettie D says:
    November 10, 2010 at 13:35

  15. NY PTK says:
    November 10, 2010 at 14:27

    I am not voting for him for the following two reasons…First, I am proud Republican. Second, I have traveled the world too…went to clubs…drank…swam…stayed in many fine hotels and introduced numerous proposals to foriegn companies (Dealt with the “people” there) Does that mean my foriegn policy experience is better then his?

  16. jkels says:

    His major is
    Political Science – with a concentration in International relations.

    He’s a Democrat.
    Empty suit.

    Because he’s an inexperienced, unaccomplished Senator with very questionable associations and his supporters are shallow, obnoxious jerks.

  19. hmn186282 says:
    November 10, 2010 at 16:27

    Because McCain is the best qualified candidate. You want to talk real-life experience? He was in Vietnam for years.

  21. Holly says:

    i don’t want someone who doesn’t show the respect of simply putting their hand over their heart when the flag is up and people are saying the pledge of allegiance running my country

    Arctos, I am voting for Barack Obama, because I am smarter than the average Bear.

    Intelligent people vote for Obama, and under educated, bitter rural voters vote for Hillary Clinton.

    We already know which demographic you fit into, because you are a Clinton Supporter.

  28. 88 1 says:
    November 10, 2010 at 21:48

    Yeh look at Bush`s credentials and that really made him a good president. LOL What could possibly make anyone think that the more politicking you do the better a president you will be.

  29. sfdiego says:
    November 10, 2010 at 21:52

    Gullible or what? Obama was handed down that political record, so it too is as phony as he is himself. That was reason 1. #2 Rezko #3 Petersen #4 Ayres #5 Wright I could go on and on but I have been providing information to you folks for so long but apparently your views are so narrow minded any information provided seems to be a waste of time!

  30. Cogito Ergo Sum says:

    Show some respect for the secret ballot by not asking impertinent questions. The only acceptable answer is:

    None of your effing business.

    It is hilarious that the Obamabots THINK that the educated people vote for Obama….in my area, it was just the opposite.

    I counted Obama out of the race in January….he spent too much of his debate time arguing with the other candidates. Clearly he did not have a platform to share. The more I research Obama the more I think he is totally unfit to be President. I don’t care about his race nor do I care about the fact he did not wear a flag pin. The evidence in my opinion is there that Obama is not what he professes to be. He has lied about his accomplishments in the IL State Senate and frankly I see him saying…do as I say not as I do. Why hasn’t Obama released his tax returns from 1997 to 1999. Where are his notes from the IL State Senate. Obama is hiding something and I’m not willing to cast a vote for someone who has caused nothing but problems. At every turn, Obama and his surrogates like Donna Brazille pull the race card. I want nothing to do with someone so superficial as Barack Obama.

    His foreign affairs experience is nothing but a hoax!

(Dedicicated To Zulu Chief Shaka)

Hero who surpasses other heroes!
Swallow that disappears in the clouds,
Others disappearing into the heavens!
Son of Menzi!
Viper of Ndaba!
Erect, ready to strike,
It strikes the shields of men!
Father of the cock!
Why did it disappear over the mountains?
It annihilated men!
That is Shaka,
Son of Senzangakhona,
Of whom it is said, Bayede!
You are an elephant!
