Does Palin have the qualifications to lead the military? Of course not. Does Obama? Again of course not. Would I prefer another 4 years of Obama? Question not even worth answering.
And what would "qualifications" those be? Because she didn't serve, see combat, get wounded? Or would she perhaps be even more "qualified" as the mother of an enlisted soldier now serving, making deployment and ROE decisions all the more direct and personal?
She's "qualified" in my book as an Army officer.
