Barack Obama for President,what has he done or experienced?

He goes from college to the State House ,then to the US Senate and now wants to be President. Has he ever held a real job,run a business,been in the military at any rank? What if anything qualifies him to lead the country?

1. nothing.
2. I admit he is not particularly experienced... ...But what has that gotton us lately?
3. He certainly didn't have a bunch of failed businesses, coke problems, and DUI's like the current president.
4. Don't Vote for Barack Obama ! Let Clinton be the Candidate.
5. He went to college. Obviously he didn't learn one damn thing if he's spending millions of his dollars vying for President instead of investing it wisely. Had he done anything constructive as a Senator he could have remained as a Senator learning more and providing more of his insight in that arena, before launching himself towards being a President without a stitch of accomplishments on his empty resume.
6. he went to college and he's black what more do you evil, earthquake causing, tsunami creating, hurricane planning republicans want? ;) --- CONKILLA2008 you're at it again. that link is a BLOG, dude. people are allowed to write ANYTHING they want in BLOGS. they are not screened for accuracy, why oh why do you read those things. You realize the people who wrote them are laughing at you?!
7. He has had more experience than people suggest. He's a new kind of politician who is for a transparent government where lobbyist and interest groups dont have as much influence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama#State_legislature
8. He went to a Rich, Elitist Private School in Hawaii (Punaho)...then he went to Harvard...and some how ended up in Illinois...he has experience in going to Garden Parties and singing Kumbya around a fire...he might make a good President in about 10 years or so...and for one of the posters above me, he apparently has or had a coke problem...didn't he say so in his book?
9. A "real job?" You've got to be kidding me... And now a person must have been in the military to serve as President? What great accomplishments did Bush make during his military service? If people can promote someone like Fred Thompson, then certainly Obama has equal or greater abilities to lead this country.
10. Barack Obama has spent a lot of time in Africa so he will be in good shape to know what their needs are so he will make a great President for them Just like George Bush has tried to make a great President for mexico ,but what we need is a President that will be the President for the American people and I don't think that will be another Clinton either so we will just have to start Praying we will get a person running in the next few months that will be for the AMERICAN PEOPLE ( hey remember us) we are the people that speak and no one listens to any more. Give us someone Honest and is for the People ( I know how hard that is) But it can be done and I don't care if they are D. or R but just be for the people for a change
