You’re making a mountain out of a molehill and creating scenarios that have no basis.

What I, and many other libertarians on the right, want to know is the extent to which Sarah Palin understands the monetary issues, and to what degree does she support reform.

Where does she stand on this issue?

Does she understand that we need sound money and that the FED stands in the way of that? Her initial support for bailouts indicates that there is a hole in her concept of free markets. She's not alone in that among conservatives. Most Americans, and most conservatives, gloss over the fact that we have anything but a free market in money. Our monetary system is the most centrally controlled sector of our economy, and this enables the politicians to spend beyond our means. It is our centrally controlled monetary system more than anything else that enables a big federal government.

Ron Paul's audit the fed bill is a small step in the right direction. The hope is that the information that comes from these audits will begin to awaken Americans to the problem with our money. You may consider this a molehill. I consider it THE most fundamentally important issue of our time.

So all I want to know is the extent of Palin's knowledge of and support for monetary reform. Does she understand the issue? Does he understand that our money is not sound and does she want to do something about it? Or does she, like other GOPers such as Judd Gregg, want to continue business as usual at the FED?

Until I know the answers to these questions, while Sarah Palin may be an improvement over less conservative opponents, she's not worth my time considering.

Your molehill is my mountain.

The issue is important, however your insistence that she is the engine driving this train is silly as is your seemingly insistence on having personal assurances from her to sooth your nerves.

She isn’t about ‘fundamentally changing’ America as is Obama.
