    Wow; talk about "belaboring the obvious". GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign, appearing on "This Week", pointed out the glaringly blatant fact that Pres. Obama has ZERO executive experience,and cite this as as reason for his numerous policy failures:


    Romney campaign: Obama lacks executive experience


    WASHINGTON (AP) -- Mitt Romney's campaign says President Barack Obama's policies aren't working in large part because Obama lacks executive leadership experience.

    Romney campaign adviser Eric Fehrnstrom says Americans turned over the world's largest economy to someone who had no prior executive leadership experience. In contrast, Fehrnstrom points to Romney's role in running the 2002 Winter Olympics and his term as Massachusetts governor.

    Adding to the questions about Obama's economic policies is Friday's poor jobs report. The unemployment rate rose to 8.2 percent for May.

    I guess "community organizing" doesn't avail one of much executive skills, outside of getting a barbeque together....

    What will be discussed for years is how this guy was able to win the White House in the first place..
    No experience..in anything that matters.
    The ability of people to be swayed by the press not asking the right questions..but instead attacking the other party.

    Not this time.

    This argument would have worked great in 2008. I fail to see how 4 years as the executive of the most powerful and richest country on the planet doesn't count as executive experience.

    He was governor of the state of Massachusetts, genius!

    How a radical Alinskyite "community organizer", who never even ran a lemonade stand,
    ever became president is one the great shames of our nation's history. That shame will end in November, however.

    ROmney has been BOTH a highly successful CEO of corporations, the Salt Lake City Olympics (saved 'em), and the successful governor of a state.

    You were saying....?

    So? Being a greedy CEO means he is qualified for president?

    Many people see Obama's Executive experience as a continuation of his 2008 campaign. The President certainly lacks governing skill, yet after three years and four months in office is no Presidential lightweight.

    Do you just want to pretend Mitt Romney never ran the state of Massachusetts, like it never even happened?
    You've got a lot of guts questioning someone's qualifications to be president after that jug eared socialist Obama got into office.

    LOL... but hey, sometimes even the obvious has to be stated, especially when you're dealing with people dumb enough to think a (*)(*)(*)(*)-talking, empty-suited, babbling fool with no experience in the real world should be president of the United States.

    Failing at a job he was unqualified for in the first place is not a good recommendation.

    Romney has been successful as BOTH a PRIVATE and PUBLIC CEO...

    Unfortunately, all of Obama's presidential *experience* has been a disaster for the US. I don't think we can afford four more years of Obama's *experience*.

    He's been president for what will be 4 years. I think that he has some experience.

    Let's see what a guy with extensive PUBLIC and PRIVATE CEO experience BEFOREHAND can do ,as opposed to a "community organizer" , who had to "learn on the job", shall we?

    We are reaping the results of Obama's "too little-too late" education now....

    You're comparing a man who has experience as president versus a man who does not.

    Sorry but America does not need another businessman. Businessmen do nothing but ruin our economy. Look at Bush.

    Uh-huh; a man who has massively failed due, in large part, to a complete lack of executive experience, to one who already has MAJOR LEADERSHIP experience.

    Yeah, I am,as is America.

    Our choice will be very CLEAR in November, with a MAJOR PREVIEW, on Tuesday, in Wisconsin.

    Pssst... Obama has continued and expanded on virtually every Bush policy. Tax cuts for the rich, deficits, debt, war for oil. They're practically twins separated at birth.

    Look at Obama. Only an idiot would say a businessman knows nothing about running the business of this nation.

    Please, let's not. He can run a company, good for him, why doesn't he stay there and "create jobs?"

    Failed? How so. I wouldn't rate it as spectacular, but certainly not a failure.
