<p>There is a difference between actually being IN CHARGE of something, and being a “staff” person, senator, teacher, or other such person who really doesn’t make executive decisions. He wasn’t running his own campaign…he was just saying what the teleprompters told him to say. </p>
<p>Bush was governor of Texas. Clinton was governor of Arkansas. G.H.W. Bush was Vice President. Reagan was governor of California. Carter was governor of Georgia. Ford was VP. Nixon was VP. Johnson was VP. You have to go all the way back to 1960 to find someone who was elected president without high-level executive experience. And at least he was in charge of a PT boat.</p>
