Sander is no Barack Obama Gothmog Jan 2016 #22

Rather, Obama is no Bernie Sanders. hedda_foil Jan 2016 #25

"The presidency is not an entry level position." SunSeeker Jan 2016 #2

I assume you voted for Obama?? rateyes Jan 2016 #33

Obama was not "entry level." The Register is referring to the likes of Trump, Carson and Fiorina. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #37

But the Register was taking a shot at Bernie rateyes Jan 2016 #38

No, Bernie is not more qualified than Obama was. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #40

And Bernie has spent much more time in elected rateyes Jan 2016 #41

It was spent as mayor of a town of 40k, and Congressman of a tiny state. nt SunSeeker Jan 2016 #42

And a US Senator. He has 20 yrs more governing experience rateyes Jan 2016 #43

Obama had a lot more qualifications, in addition to his Senate years. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #44

I wasn't trashing anybody. You were. rateyes Jan 2016 #47

Nope, you brought up Obama, insinuating that is who the "entry level" ramark was aimed at. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #48

You are going to be sad on Super Tuesday Gothmog Jan 2016 #28

I admit this if Hillary wins Iowa it's over. So there's a good chance it's over immediately. JRLeft Jan 2016 #31
