You're going to need somebody with that knowledge to fix the mess that Bush created.
I think Obama has some of what it takes to be a President, but not just yet. He's still a little green. He'd be better off as Vice-President for a while, and then once he's got some more political experience under his belt then he can take on the Oval Office.

I'm with you. It's a cut-throat arena......they would swallow Obama. Hillary's already been in the fire (and you can already see the Republicans coming after her with this lesbian scandal.....they're gonna do whatever it takes to hurt her). Edwards talks about "unions" and issues that make Corporate America cringe, and that's where the $$ is.
Jeffrey Toobin (sp?) recently got his book published on the Supreme Justices. He was saying that Hillary would probably nominate Obama for Supreme Justice (as three of them will be exiting in the future). Makes a lot of sense, Obama is well-versed in the law and he could be sitting in a pretigious position like that for the next 30 years. Just something to consider....
