Comparing time in public service ignores the nature of that public service; Edward's public service experience is entirely legislative, following a private litigational career. The Incumbent's public service has been entirely executive, following an executive career. Apart from a personal staff, Edwards has no experience of administering anything. Both Kerry, having served in military command and as a Lt. Governor, and Cheney, having headed both private sector major firms and cabinet-level governmental departments, have extensive executive experience. Given length of experience, and the nature of that experience, as qualificative parameters, of the four, Cheney by far would be the most qualified.

Cheney as you claim may be the most qualified. However, would a person with his medical history ever be elected to the office of president. He is a heartbeat away from the presidency and also a heartbeat away from the grave.
It certainly does make a differance. Edwards can understand how the "common" man lives and what his everyday problems are while bush has lived with a silver spoon on his mouth from the day he was born. How can royalty understand the problems of the common man. Answer he cant!
Okay Cyclop, if I have to prove that that conservatives aren't any more homophobic than liberals, let's see your evidence that they are. You started it.
(Remember that Dick Cheney's daughter is openly gay and no way they have her in the closet.)
She's an airhead. Just look at her hairdo.
She wears the same red suit to every meeting, every convening of the Senate. It could get up and go to the Hill without her.
And I'll pay attention to the spelling of the Head Cheerleader's name if you'll pay attention to what's going on in the world once in awhile.

No, he didn't start it.
YOU started it, and I challenged it.
Prove it or admit you can't.
If you want to see something, look at John Edward's hair and then look at his wives? Why the big difference? Doesn't he give the "little lady" enough $$ to get her hair done?

Edwards, with his millions and millions, doesn't even know what the word "common man" means. Doesn't he now own three estates? But of course, he's still not in Kerry's league with the $1 billion in dough, he holds with his wife, Heinz-Kerry.
I'm not defending her. She can do quite a better job at it than I can. I would just prefer that you stop being ignorant.
And Pdiddie, may I suggest a remedial reading class or at least a review of who brought up the whole homosexual thing that has nothing to do with this thread anyway?
