Default Obama as president: The Commander and Thief

Lincoln had no experience either. We all know how that turned out.

Frankly, the fact that Obama has run one of the most exceptionally
successful campaigns in history while McCain's campaign has floundered
miserably, says more about Obama's ability to lead the US than anything
else.
