On what grounds is Obama - "NOT QUALIFIED" to be POTUS - Lack of Education, Race, Religious beliefs, Height?

Question

When people say this I can't help but believe it must be his Race, because it can't be his Education or Religious beliefs. He's went to Harvard and he's a Christian(so he says). So I'm trying to understand why people are saying this. You may not agree with his politics(I don't), but he's qualified.

And it's crazy when people say this because he is President and he was voted President by the Majority of America.

Answer 1

I'm not one of those ultra-right crazies. Did I vote for him? No. Would I? Nah. But he's qualified for the position. His opinions differ from mine, but that's it. To say that he's "unqualified" for the position and think Sarah Palin is qualified, drives me to madness. I've heard this too, and it pisses me off.

Answer 2

Anyone can have an education - Harvard or otherwise! Book learning is one thing, but putting their knowledge to practical use is another. You DON'T walk out of kindergarten straight into senior classrooms! It takes YEARS to get there, and Obama never took the time to get "marinated"!!!! He has NO experience in International affairs, the Military, and less knowledge of finances! He has surrounded himself with a group of "advisers" who have LESS qualifications than HE does! It has nothing to do with him being a Mulatto or his religious beliefs! There are VERY learned African Americans who could have filled that position much better than him! What has his height got to do with anything?

Someone ought to have told him, being the President of the United States isn't a position where it is all fun and games! which so far, that's all we have seen during his term in office! He is seen when he wants to be seen, and hides when he doesn't! And for his party's Senators who are telling the People we are not educated enough to make an informed decision on our own, they had better start looking for another job in November, because THEY TOO, will be out of work like the rest of us!!!

Clinton is wasting his precious time and afforts trying to give Obama some on the job training, cos the kid is just not listening. Go home Bill, and enjoy what's left of your life with your family!

Answer 3

For the millionth time, it is NOT his race. I KNEW this would happen. I knew when he was elected that if ever ANYONE criticized him or his policies in ANY way, they would be called a racist.



The man was a Chicago politician for what, 7 months? THAT gives him enough experience to be president? I'm not talking congressman or senator, they all start somewhere, but PRESIDENT?



It does seem to me a bit odd that we do not know anything about his grades in those fancy Ivy League schools, nor do we get a straight answer about his sitting in Rev. Write's church of hate for 20 years, nor do we gat an explanation for why he actually bad mouths America to other countries, or bows to Mid-Eastern leaders..



He clearly has socialist and marxist leanings. The federal government now has control of 66% of the U.S. economy.



I do not care which party is in power, ANY government with that much power is inherently dangerous to the freedoms of it people. This is simply common sense. A government big and powerful enough to GIVE people everything, is also big and powerful enough to take it all away.

Answer 4

There are 3 legal requirements to be US President. It does not mean that everyone who meets this requirements are qualified to be President.



A man who has never ran, or managed a business is trying to regulate it.

A man who doesnt know what a budget looks like is trying to run one.

A man with no military experience is trying to lead it.

He simply doesnt have the skills in any category a President should have some skills in.

He didn't have experience at anything... Not executive, not political, he has not written a law, he cosigned one. He spent most of career jumping up jobs...



Now that he is in office his lack of experience is showing..

To quote Rush Limbaugh... He is the least experienced person in any room he walks into.



If it was his race he probably wouldnt have gotten elected. I think his race helped him get elected.. Im not saying it was a deciding factor, but I think it helped more than hurt him.

Answer 5

You're confusing qualifications with requirements. He meets all the requirements in the Constitution necessary to hold the office.



He was entirely unqualified. No executive experience. No business experience. No military experience. Little government experience. His main experience was in academia. Maybe enough to qualify for some judgeship somewhere, but hardly President of the United States of America.

Answer 6

The reason you "can't help but believe it must be his Race" is because you are a racist (otherwise that reason would not occur to you, since "race" is not a qualification to be President).



FYI - The most credible evidence to date shows that he was born in what is now part of Kenya, which would make him constitutionally ineligible (i.e., "not qualified") to be President.

Answer 7

Citizenship

Answer 8

I am more qualified to be POTUS than that fool. He has NO executive expereince and it's showing like a red light. Personally I don't think he is constitutionally qualified either, but that's another story.

Answer 9

How about EXPERIENCE! He's never run anything and being a community organizer is nothing.

Answer 10

Zero experience managing a budget, and boy does it show.

Answer 11

2 years ago my answer would have been experience.

Now that he's been there the obvious answer is the job he has done since being in office.
