Having experience is not the enemy and having a bunch of in-experienced people in office would lead this country to into ruins. This is why I can't take things you say seriously, because you don't think them through.
Really Robbie, do you actually think through the long term affects of these ideas of yours?

Yep, and my "ideas" are in line with Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington.
Being a politician isn't brain surgery. And it's not a skill to be trained for like an airline pilot.
They go in, and are told by the party leader (majority leader, minority leader, whip) how to vote and when to vote. And that is all about servicing the corporations who are the benefactors of the senior members.
Do you really think that John McCain is somehow a genius? Or Harry Reid is smarter than you are? Or Nancy Pelosi? Or Ted Cruz? Or fucking John Boehner?
Give me a break. This country is SUPPOSED to be Of The People and For The People.
WE are the people. And these lifetime parasites need to be put out to pasture.
By the way...I agree 100% about the bullshit that politicians (especially "social conservatives") try to push down our throats with religion.
This country was founded by men who knew that religion was superstitious nonsense. They were true progressive men of science.
And like everything...it's been perverted by politicians looking for ways to gain power.
It makes me sick to see our Presidents proclaiming their "faith" and during elections watching them try to "out-religion" their opposition.
In a sane world...it would be just the opposite.
