    Past has nothing to do with it. Obama wasn't qualified then, and Trump isn't qualified now.

    So if Obama wasn't qualified, and Trump isn't qualified, neither is Rubio, Fiorina, or Cruz.

    of course it does, we are talking about qualifications. Being the president is a mix of temperament and intelligence.
    bush was a cowboy and obama is too methodical.
    Trump doesnt fall anywhere in that spectrum.
    there is a difference between a being a cowboy and just being a bombastic idiot.
    both Bush and Obama have traits that lean favorable to their presidencies. i just dont understand why the defense of Trump is so strong here. Its a distraction and sideshow and is hurting the republican partys elect-ability in this election.

    Go ahead and sling some mud. It's just a game. The two of you can have a beer together after the election.

    When have I ever dodged an argument? I was a Hillary supporter in 2008, so I wasn't campaigning for Obama. But you cannot deny that he held public offices before running for president.

    I agree with your statement on what a gov't should be, but I think currently our gov't politicians are mostly concerned with their own personal "endless pursuit of profit ethically or unethically".....and I don't think all companies are run that way, don't get me wrong some are.

    How is being trillions of dollars in debt a good thing?

    no, the banks made him surrender a portion of his ownership in each case and he had to sell his yacht and his airline to pay the debts. but make no mistake, the banks forced him to pay up portions with his own assets but he didn't do it voluntarily.
