Well let's see, Obama's experience entailed some local experience, a few years in the Illinois state legislature, a few years in law, and two years in Congress. When was the last time we elected a President with the same credentials? Oh yeah, now I remember, Abraham Lincoln.

And when was the last time we elected a President with experience, and with a cabinet full of years of top military and foreign affairs (and war time) experience? Oh yeah, George Bush.

The point is that inexperience doesn't necessarily mean the person in question is unqualified for the job, or even that all the experience in the world means that the person is qualified.
