Similar level? Are you retarded?
Stop getting your facts from Fox News and do some research:
Quote:
Since Republicans seem to think that Barack Obama has no governmental experience, I thought it would be illustrative to compare him to some other presidential candidates in the past.
George W. Bush: At time of his election in 2000, total of 6 years experience in government, all state.
John Edwards: Total of 6 years experience in government, all federal.
Ronald Reagan: At time of his election in 1980, total of 8 years experience in government, all state.
Jimmy Carter: At time of his election in 1976, total of 10 years experience in government, all state.
John F. Kennedy: At time of his election in 1960, total of 12 years experience in government, all federal.
Richard Nixon: At time of his election in 1968, total of 12 years experience in government, all federal.
Barack Obama: Total of 12 years experience in government, both state and federal.
Bill Clinton: At time of his election in 1992, total of 14 years experience in government, all state.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt: At time of his election in 1932, total of 14 years experience in government, both state and federal.
As you can see, he has significantly more experience than four prominent candidates of the past, and about the same amount of experience as four others. People keep saying that criticizing his lack of experience is a reasonable thing to do. Well, it might be reasonable -- if it were actually based on the facts. In actuality, however, it is not.
