Reply #16: I just have a different view on that

I think Obama has show he's not ready for prime time yet. I think we've seen that in many of his responses to questions during the debate, as well as other instances.

I think one of the important traits of a leader, is being someone who doesn't just shoot from the hip without thinking first. Someone who doesn't just open their mouth, but has the ability to think things through first.

And when I watched Obama respond to the diplomacy question during the YouTube debate, I felt like I was watching someone who responded without even really thinking first.

With Obama, I'm worried that people have gotten caught all up in the hype of a man who gave one good, inspiring speech at a Convention, without really examining his record since then.
