If America had to decide out of these two idiots, who would the United States choose? Or who would you vote for?

LOL. That sounds like good old Dan Quayle. Don't forget he had as much experience as JFK when he ran for President!

America would pick the brilliant MBA graduate and defender of freedom over the astute and accomplished attorney, although both would be excellent choices.

Myself, I would have to go with the courageous defender of freedom.

Actually, when Quayle was running for Vice President, he did have as much elected political experience, save 1 year, as John F. Kennedy had when Kennedy ran for President.

Quayle
House of Representatives 1977-1981
U.S. Senate 1981-1989

Kennedy
House of Representatives 1947-1953
U.S. Senate 1953-1960

Lloyd Bentsen's line in his debate with Quayle was nothing more than political theatre and grandstanding on the part of a condescending Senator, who knew he was going to be bested in the election by Quayle, and it was very hard on Bentsen's ego to accept this fact.

^Kinda, but not really.  It was said that he didn't have enough experience to be President if needed to be, and he stated that he has just as much experience as JFK, which he did.
