Again, you're only taking title into account. As a congressman Obama had significantly more responsibility and accomplished more than Palin did in her few months as governor of Alaska.

The answer between the two of them is fairly clear cut.
No, it's not. You aren't looking at the issue remotely critically. The titles aren't what matters. It's what that experience entails. "Mayor" and "governor" don't mean much when you served in a sleepy state with a minute population.

And again, I'm simply talking experience, I don't like either one. To rephrase my previous questions:

Executive Experience versus nothing?
Executive Experience versus legislative experience?

Remember, the presidential position is an executive position.
Still, you're not taking into account anything but titles, which do not accurately express the content of someone's accomplishments. "Executive" doesn't mean anything when it's regarding eighteen months in Alaska, whereas the legislative experience Obama has (not to mention the eduction = a clear understanding of American law) demanded a ton of responsibility.

It doesn't help that Sarah Palin can't conduct herself professionally and utterly lacks basic understanding of American law.

AND I DON'T EVEN LIKE OBAMA.
