Experience Matters

Jenn writes that experience is important in the next President. Here's the type of experience she thinks matters:

I want experience in being able to speak in a way that makes people listen.
-I want experience in the real world, not just the secluded world of politics.
-I want experience in being trustworthy.
-I want experience in being lower- or middle-class through at least part of adulthood.
-I want experience in cultures other than ours.
-I want experience in mediating, negotiating, and modifying a bill so it works for people on both sides of the aisle.

Do you think we can elect a candidate who has this type of experience? Yes, we can.
