Why doesn't Charlie Gibson ask Oabam how many states there are? Why doesn't Charlie Gibson asks Obama how he blew a 7 to ten point lead in about two days and mismanaged Palin’s selection as VP. I do believe she is capable of doing better and it is clear that she is doing her home work. On issues she has experiance in she has great form. Many of the questions asked were tough, a lot harder than deciding when a fetus has human rights. If Israel decides to take on Iran we can't stop them can we? Israel will do what it has to to survive, Gibson should know this. Gibson should quite playing I got ya....

Governor, let me start by asking you a question that I asked John McCain about you, and it is really the central question. Can you look the country in the eye and say "I have the experience and I have the ability to be not just vice president, but perhaps president of the United States of America?"

Senator Obama, can you look the country in the eye and say "I have the experience and I have the ability to be president of the United States of America?"

And you didn't say to yourself, "Am I experienced enough? Am I ready? Do I know enough about international affairs? Do I -- will I feel comfortable enough on the national stage to do this?"

Senator Obama, are you experienced enough? Are you ready? Do you know anything about international affairs?

But this is not just reforming a government. This is also running a government on the huge international stage in a very dangerous world. When I asked John McCain about your national security credentials, he cited the fact that you have commanded the Alaskan National Guard and that Alaska is close to Russia. Are those sufficient credentials?

Senator Obama, it seems that Governor Palin has explained that she has sufficient credentials, but really you are the one that is running for the office of President, not Governor Palin. Just exactly, what are your credentials?

Have you ever met a foreign head of state?

Mr. Gibson, can you tell me how many of our 43 presidents have met a foreign head of state before they were in office? Sorry Charlie, some of them never even met a foreign head of state after they were in office...
