<p>1-10. Sarah Palin</p>
<p>1-10. The fact that the American political system presented such underqualified candidates. Yes, Sarah Palin=Joke, but Barack Obama winning an election is an insult to the American political system and people. He never authored a bill during his entire term as a senator and almost always voted present. Why wasn’t Joe Biden or someone else qualified the big dog on the Democratic ticket (and no not the Hildabeast) well Barack proved himself capable of change at a lesser level. Change isn’t more inexperience running our country. Change isn’t choosing Bill Clinton’s cabinet all over. Change isn’t choosing one hispanic guy to your cabinet. Change and indecision seem to be the same thing to this man. Sorry I could go all day. Why doesn’t America screw party lines and choose someone who could’ve solved a financial dilemma? (this election Mitt Romney would’ve been the perfect fit, he brought MA out of debt, he’s a financial genius and we are suffering a “financial crisis” so let’s let Barack spend money on social programs…)</p>
