<div><em><strong>孫子兵法</strong> asked: </em></p>
<p>..it has no barrier of being good in what they do in the White House? </p>
<p>Richard Nixon was one of the most experienced people ever to take the office of president – having served in the Senate and eight years as vice president – yet he made a thorough mess of things domestically and had a mixed record in foreign policy. </p>
<p>Similarly, James Buchanan had been a U.S. congressman and senator, minister (ambassador) to Russia and Great Britain, and secretary of state before becoming chief executive, but his poor policies as president helped cause the bloody Civil War. </p>
<p>On the other hand, Chester Arthur only held two mid-level jobs in New York and was vice president for a mere six months before taking over for James Garfield after he was assassinated in 1881. Yet Arthur was a good president. The only reason he is not better known is because he was not president during a war (a good thing if you stop and think about it) and did not exude charisma (although he was a snappy dresser).</p>
<p>So Palin has &#8220;executive experience&#8221; but no foreign policy or national security experience like Biden&#8230;yet Republicans kept harping why &#8220;executive experience&#8221; is good. </p>
<p>From my POV; better judgment politically is greater than &#8220;executive experience.&#8221;</p>
