As I have said before experience matters.  President Obama’s lack of executive experience is compounded by the team he has assembled.  To quote the New York Times the Obama administration has a “West Wing filled with more alumni of the House and Senate than any recent administration.”  That pretty much tells the tale.  While lacking executive experience, Obama loaded up the administration with legislative alumni, rather than executives.

Perhaps his goal was to streamline the ability to get measures passed, but there is a reason the founders created separate branches of government with different responsibilities.  When we most need an experienced steady hand on the tiller, we are verging on chaos.  It’s not good.
