Obama Lack of Exerience, completely wrong

I am sick to death of hearing the Hillary, Edwards and the entire pack of the democrats about to pounce on Obama´s supposid ´lack of experience¨

Well, here´s how I evaluate the experience of those running for office, one about to inherit a country facing several catastrophe´s, someone fearless with the ability to make the very tough decisions that must be faced the next president. It´s very simple.

The year the Bush team along with the entire media, with few exceptions, pressured and pushed and almost threatened the senate to vote yes to give Bush the right to declare war, worked for Bush.  Almost EVERY democrat vote yes.  They voted yes on a war that millions of Americans and other countries marched and begged them to vote no, to stop this war.  Everyone knew the information was cooked, we all knew there  were no WMD´s, Scott Ritter,among many others, told us... my 11 year old son knew there were no weapons and that this war was some personal vendetta for Bush-Cheney, et al.  And the predictions, all of which have come true, we knew before the vote exactly what was going to happen, Bush´s own father predicted it.

So, as I, an extremely well read and informed voter, I´ve narrowed down the kind of experience I want in my candidate for the White House..... I do not want the one, who when begged to stop what turned out to be a massacre, I want the one who stood up and voted against what THEY ALL KNEW WAS WRONG.  Don´t get me wrong, I don´t hold it against those who have now apologized and said the vote was wrong.... but it´s just not good enough for me.  For the leader of the free world, I want the one I watched tremendous pressure put upon them, who even with the threat of losing their career, still voted no. I can even feel for those still´claiming ´they were lied to... what I find very hard to swallow is the Clinton stance on this issue, the symantics she uses to somehow cover her rear end... she still refuses to say the vote was wrong... the central problem with this is the fact that we all know how intellegent and common sense tells us she couldn´t possibly believe the vote was not a catastrophic mistake.   She is playing her cards the way the republicans have delt them.  They have somehow convinced the Democratic contenders that it´s okay to say now that your vote was wrong, but in order to prove to the America people you are strong on defense, you need to have voted yes for the war.   PLEASE.

This kind of nonsense just strengthens my resolve, that  the only experience I want in my next president, is proof of their leadership skills.  When Bush was shoving this war down our throats, America was desperate for a leader, the Senate, we wrote literally millions of letters to senators, begging them to vote no.... but few voted no, they all took what they thought at the time the¨¨correct political¨
vote....  this profound lack of judgment narrows my choices for who I will vote for in the Democratic primary.... here´s who´s in the running- Barak Obama, Al Gore or Howard Dean.  those three showed the kind of outstanding and fearless leadership that this country so desperately needed then and even more now after this disastrous Bush administration.  No one else intrests me in the least.  I watched their ëxperience´and it was catastrophic... they performed badly under pressure, their experiencs leaves no question of how they would lead the country.. and only the above mentioned above are up to the job. again, OBAMA, GORE, DEAN.
