Politics.....

I just received an email with the subject line 143 days. After reading it, I felt I had to post it.....just read it and please think long and hard about your vote on Nov. 4th.

You couldn't get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.
You couldn't become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.
You couldn't get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 daysof experience.
You couldn't join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.
You couldn't get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience. (could you Prof. Aselage)
But, From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United States Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate. That'show many days the Senate was actually in session and working.
After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World .... 143days.
We all have to start somewhere. The Senate is a good start, but after 143 days, that's all it is - a start.AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public is okay with this and campaigning for him.
We wouldn't accept this in our own line of work, yet some are okay with this for the President of the UnitedStates of America?
Come on folks, we are not voting for the next American Idol!

Very fitting...the time in near and we must elect the most qualified candidate for the job......
