That question was seriously posed on some website I came across, and your typical emotionally-charged debate followed. My God, there must have been millions of comments to this manufactured question about whether Barack Obama is “experienced” enough to be president. You could scroll to the middle of this bullshit sandwich and the comments wouldn’t be any different than they were at the top of the page because NOTHING was being said.

“Is Obama ready for the White House?” The question itself implies that he’d actually be the one calling the shots - that he’d be the master of our country’s destiny. Let’s try reality on for a change and see how it fits. If Obama becomes president, he’ll be just another puppet like the presidents before him. Politicians take orders from business. The president’s constituency is corporate America. Being able to read while looking pretty is essentially all his job requires. Judging from Obama’s platform and cult status… yeah, I’d say he’s ready to do that.
