Why Obama is Not Ready to be President

He's an inexperienced political opportunist whose main reason for wanting to be President is personal, for power. He is not patriotic. How can he be, listening to Rev. wright and his rantings? I don't believe his explanations that he NEVER heard the sermons, the specific comments, or whatever version he wants to come up with. I think he's a liar.

The patriotism issue is a real issue for me: If you don't like the country, you should not be the leader of the country. His wife his an America hater too, yet she wants to be first lady? The connections to Rezko and William Ayers, the terrorist, is valid to determine Obama's judgment and character, since we know nothing about him.

The flag pin issue might seem trivial to some but it is very telling. He takes the pin from a veteran last Tuesday, pins it on his lapel, after claiming that doing so does not prove one's patriotism, to get the man's vote no doubt. He than shows up at the debate the following night without it. Be consistent. If you chose not to wear one, don't wear one to get votes. He was quick to surround himself with flags when he gave his "race" speech though. Very convenient. I guess the flag served its purpose in that instance.
