What's the things a good President should do?
One of the primary themes of this 2008 Presidential campaign has been experience. Namely, both Hillary Clinton and John McCain have made the claim that Barack Obama does not have enough experience to be the President of the United States. The problem with this argument is that it’s pretty vague. The Presidency is a job unlike any other, so the only real experience for the big chair is actually being President. In that sense, both Obama and McCain are unqualified for office.
What Kind of Experience Makes a Good President?
The experiences of all five of the best Presidents have in common:
1. All five of the best Presidents were state legislators.
2. All five of the best Presidents married wealthy wives.
3. All five of the best Presidents had legal training.
4. All five of the best Presidents had successful careers in the private sector.
