I think that Obama has been elected not only because he is a lawyer (obviuos!!!) or because he his a Black (yes, it is also for this reason) but also because it has charisma and I like it. This could depend on his job. Many lawyers are very persuasive; being persuasive is very important for a lawyer because he has to convince the judge or the jury.
In my opinion a politician who is also a lawyer is better than another one that has a different job or he hasn't. I say this because I think that being a lawyer help the politician in order to know the Law that he has to apply in some subjects. Than it is important to notice that the politician is linked so much with the laws' world that it is important that he knows them very well.
But I have to say that there are other jobs connected to the politics. I think that being an economist should help in governing a State.
In conclusion I think that politicians, particularly in Itlay because many of them have not finished their studies, should be graduated. Personally I trust them more than people who are not graduated (not always!!!).

Andrea,
You have made some good points about why lawyers often make good politicians. Be careful with your language though. The word "nigger" is very offensive and should be avoided. When talking about Obama's race you could use the term Black or African American.

Ok. I have changed the word.
I have put Black.
