The President's role is to set goals, objectives and "culture" of his
administration.
He appoints, hires and directs a team to achieve those goals.

Obama has the smarts and executive level thinking to do that. * He, by
himself, need not be the "expert".
Biden, with his experience, will be a significant asset to Obama's executive
team.

That's the problem with McCain's choice. * McCain himself may be qualified,
but the second in command isn't.

The Georgians, the Pols, and several other small allies... As to the
experience, I think McCain can get around that by naming his cabinet
early. Neither Pres, or VP really do the research and make the
decisions. Their judgement and the folks they trust to bring them the
information is what really counts.. Obamas has shown some pretty
shakey judgement with who he has stated as his mentors and the crowd
he hangs with...
