Clinton is the most experienced candidate for the job, do you agree?

Answer 1

everyone's saying that she's not experienced...then why is she the candidate most likely to win?

current polls "by the numbers":

Poll Averages - Democrats
Hillary Clinton 43.6%
Barack Obama 25.1%
John Edwards 11.9%
Bill Richardson 3.3%
Joe Biden 3.1%

Poll Averages - Republicans
Rudy Giuliani 23.7%
Mike Huckabee 19.3%
Mitt Romney 13.7%
Fred Thompson 11.9%
John McCain 11.4%
Ron Paul 4.3%

Answer 2

In terms of range or length of experience, I would say not. Among the Democrats, Bill Richardson clearly has the broadest and best range of experience: 7 terms as a Congressman, Ambassador to the UN, Secretary of Energy, Special UN Envoy on Darfur, and of course the Governor of New Mexico.

In fact, he may be the most experienced of all the major candidates.

Cheers.

Answer 3

Experienced maybe, but right for the job? No.

None of these candidates running for office have America's best interests at heart. If you've paid enough attention to what they've been saying on the news, you would see that they really don't address what is really ailing Americans.

Bread and butter issues may be good enough to get elected, but in the long run, the American people will continue to suffer under either party's backwards stewardship.

Answer 4

No....As a New Yorker; I KNOW that she is one of the least experienced . As NY Senator...she has not written, drafted , proposed, endorsed, sponsored or voted on ANY bill that has ever benefitted NY. She has NEGLECTED & IGNORED virtually all of her duties as Senator in order to campaign for President. When she was " First Lady " her Universal Health Care Plan was her ONLY attempt at gaining some form of " political experience " & her plan was a TOTAL FAILURE.- Hillary NEVER COMPLIED WITH A SUBPOENA to turn over her voluminous, scandalous " Whitewatergate " records .

Answer 5

Hillary Clinton is the most experienced among the candidates for President because she is a lawyer, Senator and former First Lady.

Answer 6

Absolutely NOT!! During her time as Senator of NY, she has not written or sponsored ONE piece of legislation. She claims that her years as first lady has given her the experience. Yet the only proof that would support it is conveniently tied up being documented in the William J. Clinton Library and Message Parlor.

Answer 7

No, this time there are several candidates that are just as experienced if not more. Richardson is foreign policy expert who worked at the UN for her husband. Rudy/Mitt/Huckabee have all run governments of their own, where she has not.

Answer 8

No not at all. Being the wife of a Governor & President, then using that to get elected as Senator, does not give you enough on the job experience to be dog catcher.

Answer 9

No-she doesn't have a clue regarding world politics-one of the most important issues during the times that were in.
Shes just a tax and spend fanatic.

Answer 10

You better believe I agree, she has it in the bag , she is our next President and I can't wait to have Bill Clinton's smiling face once again, not old Cowboy and Al Capone. I'll be so happy to never see old Cheney talking out of the side of his mouth lying with every breath he takes. See that little Bantam Rooster crowing in to the mike with is dirty unkempt teeth. There is no excuse for him to be a nasty mouth , he gets all that dental treatment free , he just want floss and brush and use mouth wash. He is to lazy and I guess hung over from old Jack all night long. He is just funky all over , it looks like Laura would tell him to clean his nasty self up and wear clean clothes and brush those teeth and wash his hair. He is the funkiest President I have ever seen about his hygiene, Whew!!!! That is uncalled for to run around all funky.
