"The eminent American historian Richard B. Morris, in his 1973 book Seven Who Shaped Our Destiny: The Founding Fathers as Revolutionaries, identified the following seven figures as the key founding fathers: Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton.[3]

Feel free to point out which of the founding fathers had a resume that most closely resembled Obama's...

BTW- Do not bring up the similarity between Hitler's community organizing and memoirs before he came to power because he wasn't one of our founding fathers or presidents.
Barak Obama had about as much experience as any of these people. They had no political experience in national politics...they didn't exist yet as we know it. It's funny...when you listed off the "offices" they held, it sounded like the offices that Obama has held that Republicans make fun of.
