As soon as he was elected as a state Senator, he began running to be a US House Representative. When he lost that, he immediately began running as a US Senator. When he was elected to that, he immediately began running for President.
When someone is running for a higher office, they aren't doing their job completely. They are focusing more on the campaign. This can be seen in how both McCain and Obama haven't voted on very many bills recently because they are busy campaigning. Obama is ALWAYS busy campanging. He DOESN'T do his job....
Agree? Disagree?
Update:Jaz? What source do you want? A resume of his career?
1997-2004: State senator, Illinois
2005-Present: U.S. senator, Illinois
He ran for the house in 2000 and lost, so he began running for US Senate in 2003. Once he got elected to that he started running for President....

Here we go again. DISAGREE!! Why 99.9% question in election section are about senator Obama? We know you're an Obama-hater and not voting for him. Any who. Can you provide source and links? I think Obama does his job just find if 18 million plus voters want him to be our next president. I want to know. If McCain been in office for over 30 years, why am I just now hearing about him? Why isn't McCain the front runner? What bills has McCain pass? Obviously the polls say otherwise. They think he's doing his job. National Gallup Obama 49, McCain 40. ><
I love that second response...."He ain't no fool like McCain be" Every time I read responses like that it reminds me of who is supporting Obama here. And if that is the case, then you really have to question the content of his rhetoric. Because if someone with that level of grammar thinks that this man is highly intelligent and ready to lead our country, can he really be that qualified for the position?
Bravo someone paying attention!
Don't confuse flash with substance or motion with progress. Lots of people run around looking busy while accomplishing little if anything. Anyone working the Pensky file??
I totally agree! He is definitely a better campaigner. He's inexperienced at actually doing any work for his state.
BBQ, I really mean no offense, but you are not doing your beloved candidate any good by talking like that..learn some English!
Good point.
Obama's political expieriance seem to be not representing his constuancy but running for office.
This makes me wonder what he will be running for if he gets elected POTUS maybe President of the world.
He was already campaigning for world pres. last week in Germany.
He has produced virtually no legislation his official policies are hard to pin down.
False.
McWar is neither a good campaigner or leader. He's stuck in
"victory" mode. He can't even define what that "victory" is.
Obama is actually seeking a solution that doesn't mean more deaths for our soldiers.
The haters always have something to say. Obama is better than mccain and buch. He aint no fool like mccain be.
He is running alright, but he is running out of ideas if he ever had a positive one.
Yes I believe your statement is true
Disagree - he's good at both!
