Here's Obama's fucking Resume! I'm getting Frustrated here now!

Edited on Mon Sep-01-08 09:09 PM by FrenchieCat

It appears that Democrats don't seem to know how to answer what Obama's Qualifications for President are. Let us give them some help with that.

Send this everywhere, please!

Barack Obama's qualification for becoming President:

1. contested in the primary elections, was thoroughly vetted, and won his party's primary. He interviewed for the position, and got the job because he earned it. In America, the Voters decide who has enough experience, not just one man. The voters determined that Barack Obama does.

1a) Debated in more than 20 debates throughout the United States, nationally televised and critiqued by both the media and the American People. Also participated and led numerous town hall, answering questions on everything and anything from Americans.

2. Elected President of the Harvard Law Review, an office that required executive experience to get the job done. The Presidency of the Harvard Law Review is not simply a title, meaning, the President actually has work that he/she does.

3. Attended the best schools in this country, is highly educated, and holds a Law Degree.

4. Managed Project Vote in Chicago in 1993. That year, via his executive and organizing skills, Barack was seen as key in putting another Democratic Senator into the senate. That's call results. http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/January-1993/Vote-of-Confidence/

5. Served as State Senator for 8 years. Elected to that office, and his district's constituents numbered 240,000+. As a Legislator, he drafted laws and passed legislation that effected the 12+ million who resided in the state of Illinois.

6. Worked as a Law professor at the University of Chicago, a job that requires experience and the requirement of a fluent working knowledge of our constitution and a thorough understanding of how government works.

7. Practiced law as a Civil Rights Attorney, which again required a fluent working knowledge of our constitution and a thorough understanding of how government works.

8. United State Senator for nearly 4 years, representing the 5th most populous state in the Nation. He has passed major legislations, and has sat on major committees, both on domestic and foreign issues. He has worked closely with those associated as the top leaders in our government and he has passed important bipartisan bills that have affected 300+ million Americans.

9. started a presidential campaign from scratch, and in so doing, created the best ran political organization our history has ever witnessed, shattering records after records.

For nearly two years, using vision, innovation, technology, intelligence, endurance, tactical genius, and a strong macro management style, Barack Obama has shown us all exactly what his executive skills are. He defeated a well oiled political national machine in the process, one that the Republicans have yet to defeat (not from lack of trying), doing so with all of the deck stacked against him, and the race card being played by the media at every turn. The unified convention that the Democrats pulled off, despite the constant 24/7 media hype promoting chaos, is a full demonstration of Barack Obama's leadership abilities as well as his executive acumen and skills at being a unifyer.

10. Authored 2 best selling books, which has earned him millions. Also won 2 Grammy awards.

11. Writes his own speeches, one which electrified the nation 4 years ago. His most recent speech was seen by over 40 million households, beating the viewership of the opening Olympic Ceremony or American Idol. Further, his convention speech was done in front of 85,000 citizens; the largest live audience in the history of American convention politics.

12. Endorsed by the largest array of newspapers editorial boards, national politicians, political interest groups, than any other primary candidate to ever run. In other words, he comes to us highly recommended.

13. Natural statesmen and leader with the type of executive experience that counts; see above, 1 thru 12. The fact that he was able to gather 200,000 Germans while many were carrying American flags, to come to see him speak is a testament and a preview of his potential to rally our allies to our side. Obama will be in a strong position once elected in dealing with countries who may be of threat to us....because he is the person best suited to unify nations that will stand with us against such threats. Neither John McCain nor his Vice President even come close. period.

14. Broken every historical record dealing with running as a candidate for the presidency:
