The Patriot Post® · Pelosi on Presidential Qualifications

Nancy Pelosi had some thoughts on the qualifications of presidential candidates, heaping generous praise on Hillary Clinton. “With all due respect to our president, and I think he is magnificent and wonderful and a blessing to us, [Hillary Clinton would] certainly [be] more prepared than President Obama, certainly more prepared than President Bush, certainly more prepared than President Clinton.”

To argue that, based on eight years in the Senate and four as secretary of state, Clinton is more qualified than men who served as state executives is at best arguable. Then again, saying she’s more prepared than Obama is setting the bar incredibly low.
