What has Obama Done EVER, to demonstrate his leadership ability?

I saw and read Obama's remarks about Pallin's being a Mayor of a Small Town, and her being the Governor of Alaska. (I guess he would only be President of 49 states, and let Canada rule Alaska and it's TRILLIONS in oil revenues. Anyway. He made those remarks. My question is what has he EVER done to demonstrate his ability to be a LEADER? Has he ever been the leader on a platoon level? Has he ever been mayor of a small town? Has he ever been the Governor of ANY state? Has he ever built a business out of nothing and made it a success? Has he EVER DONE ANYTHING, EVER, to prove himself even remotely qualified to lead anything? Did he ever make Eagle Scout? Can he even lead a Scout Troop? A Cub Scout Troop? Has he ever been a member of the Demolay? Was the President of his Jr. High school, or High School? Did he LEAD a TEAM to victory, in ANY sport at all? Did he lead a team to victory in the Quiz Bowl? Or his High Schools Debate Team? Did he lead them? Has he ever LED anything at ALL? Has he ever led a group into prayer to Christ? Has he ever led a unit into battle? Has he ever led a REAL community effort to make any kind of change on a local level? Has he ever LED a CHANGE to the corruption in his home town political arena? If he has EVER demonstrated the ability to LEAD, ANYTHING...Let alone a NATION, I'd be honestly interested in knowing exactly what it was, and where you got your information.Obama.Great at criticism. Not so great at anything else.

Update:

Robert R.

PLEASE tell me you didn't just compare this qunt to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Sould you possibly be a little more sacriligious, offensive, or IGNORANT? I'd slap the teeth out of your mouth for that if you stood in front of me and said it. When you go to bed tonight, you need to thank God for internet anonymity.

    Not a damn thing !!!

    From another user - -

    The MAIN, bad idea of Obama, that I believe ALL True Americans should research and READ is .. Obama's Global Poverty Act (S.2433) which will surrender America's sovereignty to the United Nations !!

    I .. HAVE .. and .. WILL .. Vote for the BEST person for the job !!

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama is NOT the Best person to be THE President of THE United States of America !!!

    .

    Why would WE want ANYONE that does not have ANY mangerial experience to TRY to be THE President of THE United States of America ???

    Can YOU get over the FACT that JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama IS going to turn over the sovereignty of the United States to the United Nations ???

    ALL ... TRUE Americans need to READ the Global Poverty Act (S.2433) !!!

    .

    Governors MANAGE ENTIRE STATES !!!

    JUNIOR U.S. Senators TRY to Legislate !!!

    JUNIOR U. S. Senator Obama did NOT complete his FIRST term in office !!

    ... with just 143 days of ACTUAL experience

    ... HE decided

    ... that he DESERVED to be THE President of THE United States of America !!!

    .

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Unions, and the Democrats are sending messages to big business to downsize in America and send more jobs to foreign countries.

    Brilliant ideas from JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Democrats and the Unions (SARCASM) !!!!

    .

    MOST JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama Supporters do NOT care about his ideals and policies ... they JUST WANT AN AFRICAN AMERICAN as President !!!

    I have NO problem voting for an African American or a woman or any other minorty as long as they are the BEST PERSON for the position !!!

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama is NOT the BEST person to be OUR President of THE United States of America !!

    .

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama is ANTI-American.

    WE NEED to start doing the "REPORT ABUSE" Button on the ABUSIVE Obama Supporters for EVERY LITTLE ... POSSIBLE ... Violation, like they do to the rest of the people on here !!!!

    .

    This DOES make a LOT of sense !!!

    ALL Americans should READ Obama's Global Poverty Act (S.2433) ... He is wanting to give America's sovereignty over to the United Nations !!!

    Alaska Govermor Sarah Palin has MORE TOTAL political experience than Obama!!

    He's accomplished the whole lot in his lifestyles centered on his possess capabilities and choice. He bought into Columbia, then Harvard Law, all of the method to the US Senate. He was once editor of the Harvard Law Review, might be essentially the most prestigious management function for any American regulation scholar. He went again to take a look at to aid his neighborhood. He has proven relatively naturally that he has intelligence, capacity, cognizance and choice, and he does now not go into reverse from a venture.

    Just off hand, he took time out from a very busy primary campaign to take advantage of his support among young people by organizing training camps for teaching thousands of these youth how to orgainize their communities to help those less fortunate than them. I think this was a remarkable thing and a great show of leadership.

  • he beat clinton he understands bush sucks which McSame missed during his 20yrs in the senate

    He also wrote many bills in the state and us senate and worked with poor in community.

    He does not have have 4-8 homes or an uber rich wife like that other guy who likes bush so much

    He raised money for his campaign, he did community service work for people who did not have health care, he made it possible for those people who did not have a lawyer present to not be asked any questions of interrogations, as senator of Indiana this was also where the actions took place.

    He consistently voted against Bush. How much more leadership does a man need? What do you expect a senator to have done?

    Source(s): Jesus was a community organizer, and Pontius Pilate was a governor. The defense rests.

    Wow. I could not have said it better myself.
