7. The years in service are about the same, Obama's experience is way more substantial and superior...

Obama's district as an Illinois state legislator had more people in it than the entire state of Alaska.

Obama's tenure in the Senate put him in a "national" position, something Palin has never had.

His law-based education and experience using that education is unparallelled. His knowledge of the constitution is something to be admired and, when compared to Palin OR McCain, he can definately make the claim of having more knowledge of the constitution and how legislating works in general.

To top it off, his more humble experience as a community organizer is a small scale example of EXACTLY what a president is SUPPOSE to do. And that is organize, bring people together and figure out the best ways to take on a problem.

I don't let anyone give me this bullshit about Obama's experience anymore and you shouldn't either.
