(CBS/AP)

DES MOINES, Iowa - Former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton said Saturday that President Barack Obama isn't qualified to lead the country.

Bolton was among the featured speakers at a conference of conservative Republicans in Iowa. Bolton was nominated for the ambassadorship in 2005 by President George W. Bush.

Bolton told the crowd that Mr. Obama doesn't care enough about national security issues and doesn't view the world as a threatening place. Bolton also says the U.S. could have made a big difference in Libya, but Mr. Obama couldn't make up his mind on which steps to take.

True that, he was elected but that does not mean he is above any law.

There were very questionable tactics used via ACORN that were all over the news documented.People being offered money and laptops to vote a straight D ticket.
When Obama won in heavy military towns i e....Pensacola Fla. Tidewater Va. there is but a hint of foul play at hand.

Thanks for reminding me of ACORN and Obama being an impeachable offense.

You can move down the vocational ladder quite a few rungs from "President", and that statement still holds true.

In fact, down toward "Dog Catcher", "Bell Hop", and "WalMart Greeter", it's still valid...

Best summary I’ve seen yet. I don’t think even the fumbling without a clue Carter screwed up as many times or as consistently colossally.

“All we have to do in 2012 is elect a REAL AMERICAN president.”

Amb. John Bolton to Judge Jeanine 3/26

To me this kinda implies that Obama is not a “real” American!

I am waiting for the Obots to pick up on this statement by Bolton...

I kinda got the feeling that what Bolton was saying is: if your mission is regime change....it better change...

Once you speak after the fact, you're on a new page.

What has Bolton said in the past??

Perhaps he based his first opinion on America leading; after discovering that leadership is up for grabs in an international hot potato game, he’s having to reconsidder.
