Kinda scary when you think about it.


You couldn't get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.

You couldn't become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.

You couldn't get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 days of experience.

You couldn't join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.

You couldn't get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience.



BUT....



'From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate. That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working. After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World .... 143 days.

We all have to start somewhere. The senate is a good start, but after 143 days, that's all it is - a start.

AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public is okay with this and campaigning for him. We wouldn't accept this in our own line of work, yet some are okay with this for the President of the United States of America ? Come on folks, we are not voting for the next American Idol!

And, of those 143 days, how many of them has he actually showed up and done work? It's simply been 143 days since he was hired. However, he's called in nearly every day since then.

Call it scary but that's a Democracy at work. Any American citizen can be president regardless of credentials...no?

What about the fact the candidates are being paid for jobs they are not performing while pursuing another job (ie: President). Now personally I would love to say "hey boss I'm gonna go market myself for a better job over x period of time but your gonna continue to pay me and pay my benefits!" Talk about excessive spending?????:confused: JMO
