So... why are you sitting out perhaps the most important presidential election in America's brief history??
Largely because the MSM has destroyed her standing with much of the American people?
good question
I expect Sarah to formally endorse Perry very soon.
And if Conservatives & Republicans pick Perry over Gingrich & Romney as the nominee, I predict Perry will ask Sarah to be VP.
I’m sure she had her reasons for not running. I think she may have been alarmed by the cult of personality that seemed to have developed around her (which was probably somewhat inevitable, since she was touring the country not backed by a political party or organization, but on her own) and actually wants to be thought of as someone who can develop policies and not just play to crowds.
I wouldn’t be surprised if she runs for political office from her new state. In my opinion, leaving the governorship of Alaska as a mistake, but we also have to remember that she was under incredible attack from the left and also that she had a virtually newborn handicapped child to take care of. But perhaps she’s ready to get back into state politics or even run for legislative office in the future.
If so, I implore her - Sarah, please travel the nation advocating ...
... a Constitutional Amendment stating:
"Members of Congress may NOT exempt themselves from the laws they apply to the rest of us. "
It should be worded to include their families, staff, etc.
And that includes Health Care.
As a former huge supporter of Palin for President let me say you have asked the million dollar question. When I saw this article (and others since declining to run)the first thing that now enters my mind is “tell me something I don’t know...”
There are plenty of us out here that know that...we needed somebody who had the means and the visibility to lead us.
As of this time she’s just part of the chattering class.
Yes I’m still pretty bitter about it :)
A most excellent question, and the precise reason I believe Gov. Palin lacks courage. She said that the threats against her family were a factor in her not running (Mark Levin interview). This leads me to believe the death threats were too much for her (and that they came from both GOP and Democrat sources), so she went back to the bunker in Wasilla.
I don't want a president who says "family first." No.
