It’s like saying that Tiger Woods should have stayed in Stanford for 2 more years, graduate with a degree, and then attempt the PGA tour hoping to succeed against the big boys. instead he left Stanford after 2 years, became the number one player in the world after 9 months and won 14 majors, destroyed all the big boys and is the number one draw on the PGA tour and has been for the last 11 and 1/2 years. Sarah has 4 years to get ready for 2012; those of you who want Sarah to gain more experience and more knowledge-what do you think she is going be doing over the next election cycle-twiddlle her thumbs? Sarah is Tiger Woods, she is a prodigy, ready to compete, a diamond in the rough; she is prepared to take on all comers; if she decides to run in 2012 she will be formidable-that is what her GOP competitors and the Democrats dread.

Golf is just a little different "game" than foreign affairs. Ready to compete? Not yet. Broken In? Yes. Experience never hurt anyone. No matter how we squirmed to see the Katie Couric interview, where Couric craftily pulled out only a few seconds in sound bits out of a much longer bio interview. One must be able to answer the "cheap seat" questions. Those in the "cheap seats" are the ones who voted for Obama. They once taught us journalism has to be tailored to the reader with a 6th grade education. Course most graduates now are not as smart as a 6th grader was back then! (what's your favorite magazine? ah...)

As I said, I like Palin. I like that she represents the best about America. She is Mr. Smith (Stewart) Goes to Washington in drag. However, we have Americans who think think they are just too cool to be considered "just" an American. Note the Hyphenated place of heritage. Obama and his flag pin at the onset are a prime example of "it takes a way from the image" scenario. I do not know what has to occur to bring patriotism to the fore front. Perhaps moving back to basics (money in grandma's sock drawer) in regard to the economy is one step. Buy American! Fly our flag in support!

The Japanese have TV's and electronics and we have, yes.. Hollywood, movies as one of our biggest exports! They go hand in hand. Ford is, however, becoming very popular overseas and growing. James Bond drives a Ford now. Ford was not thought uncool for Bond. Why is Ford, GM etc. so uncool to "Our Gang" on the hill?

More than you wanted to know and probably makes no sense....
