Is Obama "Qualified" to be the Prez?

The bolded font is the reason I like your post: For you are one of the Libs that think they know it all. Such a progressive thinker. Yada Yada. But you have not the ability to speak without throwing insults.

Guess you are not "all that" after all. Good day.


I think you're an idiot because you persist in your beliefs even after you realize they're contradicted by facts.

I think you're an idiot for your comments about American service members marrying prostitutes.

I think you're an idiot for insisting that psychology and psychiatry are not science-based even after others demonstrated that they were.

I think you're an idiot because you bragged about raping an intoxicated woman. I don't think you're a rapist though because I'm certain you were lying about it.

None of these things have anything to do with my politics - you're just an idiot because you say idiotic things on a regular basis.
 
Your right.
You need to be qualified and he isn't.

Obama is qualified to be president because his resume includes being president for four years. He's therefore more qualified than Romney who has no experience being president.

The guy who ran a vulture capital firm and was the gov of a small state is much less qualified to be the federal executive and manage US foreign policy - agreed?

I never said romney was he is obama with a r in front of his name not a d.
 
...the president doesn't have to submit a budget and historically it's not done.

The Budget and Accounting Act of 1921 requires the president to submit an annual budget for federal government departments. That's merely a sub-section of the overall budget.

And Obama has done this every year.

I maintain only an idiot like yourself is comfortable squatting over such an blatant contradiction within his own mind...
 
Running a fortune 500 company is nothing like being president.

as obama has demonstrated, as POTUS a person doesn't need to have any common sense, can have an agenda to destroy the economy, and be flipping clueless when it comes to spending (oh obama spends money like a three dollar whore)

So, using your logic... Bush 43 was more qualified than John Kerry since Bush 43 had 4 years as Prez as experience and Kerry did not. Kerry was one of 100 Senators that really led nothing.

Thanks for confirming that Bush 43 was more qualified. Why would you vote for the less-qualified Kerry?

Service members do marry foreign prostitutes. Denying it won't make it go away.

Psychology and Psychiatry are not Sciences. I am not alone in my thinking. It like global warming. Some believe it man-made, others think not. But back to Psy and Psy... just because you say they are Sciences won't make it happen. Don't take Psy and Psy "not being sciences" personally... unless you work in those fields? Ouch. That sucks.

Yeah a few might. But what was the word you used? All? "Most"?

Yeah this is why you're an idiot. It's been demonstrated to you how science is an inextricably interwoven into every part of these fields. But you choose to ignore facts, therefore you are an idiot.

And I just called you out on being an idiot who lies about rapes. Interesting how you're silent on this... :rolleyes:

Yes this is correct, Bush was far more experienced and qualified to be president than Kerry.

. Why would you vote for the less-qualified Kerry?

Because Kerry was the better candidate in my view.

Eyer, we're talking about the US congressional budget, not the budget that the president submits for the executive branch. You're either lying or legitimately confused, which is it?

President Obama's proposed FY2010 federal budget, submitted to Congress as required by law:

President Obama presented his first budget to congress this morning. In its $3.5-trillion dollars of spending lies the clearest picture yet of where the president intends to take the country.

President Obama's proposed FY2011 federal budget, submitted to Congress as required by law:

WASHINGTON — President Obama sent Congress on Monday a record $3.8 trillion budget for 2011 that would boost war spending, trim some domestic spending and rely on $1.3 trillion in new borrowing.

President Obama's proposed FY2012 federal budget, submitted to Congress as required by law::

President Obama sent Congress a $3.73 trillion budget Monday, a spending plan for 2012 that projects $1.1 trillion in deficit savings over the next decade but also continues adding to the national debt for years to come.

President Obama's proposed FY2013 federal budget, submitted to Congress as required by law:

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama unveiled a $3.8 trillion spending plan on Monday for 2013 that seeks to achieve $4 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade but does little to restrain growth in the government's huge health benefit programs, a major cause of future deficits.

First, you stated that "the president doesn't have to submit a budget"...

...which is legally false.

Next, you stated that "historically it's not done"...

...which is patently false.

Then, faced with fact, you reverted to your usual pathological disingenousness and stated the law only requires the President to "submit an annual budget for federal government departments"...

...now, the facts of the 4 federal budgets - not "a sub-section of the overall budget" as you also falsely assert - that this President, required by law, has submitted are before you.

Weasel on...

...putz.
 
So, using your logic... Bush 43 was more qualified than John Kerry since Bush 43 had 4 years as Prez as experience and Kerry did not. Kerry was one of 100 Senators that really led nothing.

*laughing*... Merc believes what he wants to believe, it doesn't matter if it's true or not. It doesn't matter if it's contradictory or hypocritical.

Merc will fight to the death to defend his own bullshit.....That's what Progressives are all about....:)

Merc is one of the Dan Rather's of the world.
 
He definitely meets the age requirement. But C'mon. The Prez submits a budget yearly. The House voted it down. Not a single Dem voted Yea. That tells me something. Either the Dems are playing Politics (doubtful), or his Budget Proposal was woefully inadequate. I can submit a Budget that will be voted down unanimously. And I am a layman. He's the Prez with "supposedly" top notch advisers.

Something is amiss.

Whaddaya want, a POTUS with an MBA? We tried that last time. It don't help.

Therefore: Obama should be Prez 'cause he's more qualified than Romney, but, Bush should not be Prez 'cause he's more qualified than Kerry....:eek:

Is he qualified to be President?

Do you mean by law?

If that's the case, there are only three he needs to meet:

_____________________________________________________________________
Only native-born U.S. citizens (or those born abroad, but only to parents who were both citizens of the U.S.) may be president of the United States, though from time to time that requirement is called into question, most recently after Arnold Schwarzenegger, born in Austria, was elected governor of California, in 2003. The Constitution originally provided a small loophole to this provision: One needn't have been born in the United States but had to be a citizen at the time the Constitution was adopted. But, since that occurred in 1789, that ship has sailed.

One must also be at least 35 years of age to be president. John F. Kennedy was the youngest person to be elected president; he was 43 years old when he was inaugurated in 1961. There is no maximum age limit set forth in the Constitution. Ronald Reagan was the oldest president; at the end of his term in 1988, he was nearly 77.

Finally, one must live in the United States for at least 14 years to be president, in addition to being a natural-born citizen. The Constitution is vague on this point. For example, it does not make clear whether those 14 years need to be consecutive or what the precise definition of residency is. So far, however, this requirement has not been challenged.

Or do you mean in your opinion?

If that's the case carry on. It's spring after all. Everything needs a good dose of fertilizer and you're doing such a wonderful job of it.

I meant does he have the qualifications. It was a given he met the age requirement. I was taking it a different direction beyond age and "natural born... meaning his skill-set.
 
Therefore: Obama should be Prez 'cause he's more qualified than Romney, but, Bush should not be Prez 'cause he's more qualified than Kerry....:eek:

No I'm not saying that at all. Why do you feel the need to put words into other people's mouths? I'm saying that "qualification" is one of many aspects of a candidate that must be weighted by voters. Why is this too difficult for you to understand?

When weighing Obama/Biden's qualifications versus McCain/Palin's, it wasn't clear-cut. McCain had no executive experience at all either and his VP choice was a joke.
