true, but intelligence really isnt necessary to be a good president. obama is really smart but he is a terrible president.
Yes, it is. Got any objective criteria for that? He could be wretched and still be better than the last one.
no it isnt. team me up with 157 and we could write a computer program that would be an extraordinary president. all you need is the principles. bigger government = bad, aggressive pursuit of terrorists = good, nationalization of anything = bad. just with that and like 5 more principles you could be an extraordinary president. you dont have to have a deep understanding of anything, you just have to hire advisers that agree with your principles and have a deeper knowledge than you do. hire some chicago school free market economists and you are halfway there. i judge presidents in terms of how much they increase freedom relative to government.
Such a robotic President would be something like a pedantic anarchist Mormon thief who walks in circles to the right.
sorry sf, but my sister is one of the most conservative women i know and she calls palin "barbie". there are smart and qualified to be vice president or president republican women out there. palin is not one of them.
As long as Sarah Palin is on the National Stage, no one is going to take the Tea Party movement or Conservative policy seriously. She makes GWBush lookj like a Rhodes Scholar. She is almost certainly the biggest reason why Obama is President. Think about that for a second while you plot world dominance under her MILF-ish rule...
That's what im saying, you know the tea party movement is very attractive, for alot of people, and alot of people i know actually including myself, but as long as Sarah Palin is affiliated in any way shape or form, no sir.
