To: Cicero

You’re implying that she would need to be drafted INITIALLY to be drawn in, like Eisenhower. She never needed to be drafted. She quit the governorship, remember?

She deliberated about it, considered it, prayed about it, watched what happened to her family, lived through the vetting process, spent every day in the mindset of “Should I run?”

Then, after prayer to God... which was first on her list. She AND her HUSBAND, found the answer to be no.

In that decision process, they considered their family, because that’s what parents of a family of five children, one a special needs child... as well as grandparents to two young grandchildren... would consider the impact on the family. There are four very young children in the entire Palin family to consider.

And then, last, NOT first, but last, came country. Still the answer was no. That’s after everything, and much prayer.

So, you want her to “second guess” herself and equivocate?

I don’t think that she is that type of person. You don’t say no to the presidential campaign and the entire country, and then say, “Aw, shucks! I’ve changed my mind! Silly me!”

People would mock her endlessly if she did that. She would have no credibility as a woman who is known as a Christian and a woman of faith, if she went against prayer to God... when she claimed that God was her first consideration.
