It's not the size of the constituency that matters but the fact of administering and rendering executive service over a large body that presents the possibility that person can handle the toughest job in the world.

I mostly stay out of political discussions but one thing struck me. I am not sure if I want a manager of bureaucracies to be president. Arnold Schwartzneger was a punchline when he was elected govenor of CA and had absolutley NO experience managing a bureaucracy and was not an executive. Yet he has done a great job here in CA.
IMHO It may be more important to be a highly intelligent visionary that is also a fantastic communicator than an executive as you define it. Leadership is more than executive experience. I think leadership is the ability to inspire and get people to follow. Obama has that kind of leadership in spades even if he does not have what you consider executive experience.
