Were they anything like Mr Donald Trump?
I don't know as much as I wish I knew about these things,would you say a few names of those former inexperienced presidents?

1. Abraham Lincoln—Lincoln spent eight years in the Illinois Legislature but only one term in the House of Representatives and lost his U.S. Senate campaign in 1858.
2. Woodrow Wilson—He had served as New Jersey's governor for two years when he was elected president in 1912.
3. George W. Bush—He served as governor of Texas from 1995 to 2000 before being sworn in as president in January of 2001.
4. Theodore Roosevelt—Roosevelt was governor of New York from 1898 to 1900 and served six months as vice president before becoming president after William McKinley was shot.
5. Franklin Delano Roosevelt—His political experience prior to the presidency included one term as a state senator and a stint as governor of New York from 1929 to 1932.
And since so many lean in on the fact that Trump hob nobbed with those in politics Id garner that he knows more about the inside scoop to leading than you realize.
Well, stating that we all agree on everything Trump says and does is a gross miscalculation. I dont agree with all his platform or some of the stupid stuff he has said. I agree that he can make a difference and a beneficial difference.
None are innocent of saying stupid stuff. They have all done it so your stance is just simply picking his bones till they bleed. This is typical anti trumpist agenda.
The man does have a heart and he has done good things in the past for people. The news doent bring these things to the forefront because it simply does not benefit their cause which is to demonize him. You have taken the bait and eaten it whole

i do agree that Trump is more 'anti-establishment' than Clinton. and though i don't agree with the argument that Sanders can't possibly win the dem nomination, and a Clinton v. Trump general election is a foregone conclusion at this point, i understand that point of view.
i still have hope that he can take the nomination. if God wills it, it will happen. & maybe He doesn't, but He did will that this man should run, and i do thank Him for that, because his campaign has altered the face of American politics already, in a good way, even if it won't ultimately put him in the white house.
but i still maintain that voting for someone you don't actually support is the worst thing you can do with your vote. i will not vote for Trump just because i don't like Clinton and Trump is now the only "republican" candidate.
i'll write in if i have to. that's not a waste IMO -- that's exercising the freedom our country affords me, without bowing to the influence of the 2-party system.
i hope you all do the same. do not vote for anyone just in order to vote "against" someone else. vote for someone you really want to see hold the office - i see anything else as casting a lie.
Utah & Sirk, i know you two actually support Trump -- no dishonor to vote your conscience in that case; i think you're both nuts for that reason, but what i'm saying isn't about that, you know

Reagan was a movie star.
he didn't just step from a 'reality' show into the presidential race. he had experience.
seed_time_harvest has a valid point. Trump has never held an elected office at all -- everyone in your list was a governor or congressman for some years. he has actually zero experience in governance - his relevant experience is going to parties with some important people, taking over his father's business and bankrupting several companies, and knowing "how to make a profitable deal" - which amounts to the knack for telling people what they want to hear, so you can convince them to accept terms that wind up getting you what you want.

Clinton is not anti establishment at all!

I just think there Something really bad wrong about him.
You really make yourself look very ignorant the way you phrase things out of context. In the first place, he has far surpassed his fathers wealth. So what if he had a leg up. It sounds like you are piss poor and have a chip on your shoulder
We already went over the bankrupt thing. You havent a clue about BIG business. He broke NO LAWS.
I can tell you have never made a profitable deal in your whole life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sales isnt telling SMART people want they want to hear but it is educating and convincing them why it is PROFITABLE and BENEFICIAL for them!! .
One bad deal is all it takes to lose trust in a partner. Continuing deals is a result of fair deals for all.
Im tired talking with you.
I enjoy talking to people that know what they are talking about.

What's wrong with him is what is good about him and what we need right now. It takes a man with an ego to push thru adversity and get things accomplished. Do you really think that Trump wants to go down in history as the guy who put the final nail in the coffin of America? I find that very doubtful.
*cough* Bernie Sanders exists and has been taking on the establishment for decades *cough*
i think he's way more 'anti-establishment' than Trump, too. plus, he's not a liar.
i simply have more respect for a man who does not accept Christ and will honestly say so, than a man who does not believe in Christ but is willing to say that he does in order to gain influence and power. it's insulting to me that such a man would assume that just saying a few of the 'right words' will persuade actual believers that he is 'one of them' -- and very troubling that such an assumption should turn out to be true
