Shortly after Republicans swept last November to a historic victory in which Sarah Palin was credited with playing a central role, the former Alaska governor pulled aside her close aide, Rebecca Mansour, to discuss a hush-hush assignment: Reach out to conservative filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon with a request. Ask him if he would make a series of videos extolling Palin's governorship and laying to rest lingering questions about her controversial decision to resign from office with a year-and-a-half left in her first term. It was this abdication, Palin knew, that had made her damaged goods in the eyes of some Republicans who once were eager to get behind her potential 2012 presidential campaign.
The response was more positive than Palin could have hoped for. He'd make a feature-length movie, Bannon told Mansour, and he insisted upon taking complete control and financing it himself -- to the tune of $1 million.
The fruits of that initial conversation are now complete. The result is a two-hour-long, sweeping epic, a rough cut of which Bannon screened privately for Sarah and Todd Palin last Wednesday in Arizona, where Alaska's most famous couple has been rumored to have purchased a new home. When it premieres in Iowa next month, the film is poised to serve as a galvanizing prelude to Palin's prospective presidential campaign -- an unconventional reintroduction to the nation that she and her political team have spent months eagerly anticipating, even as Beltway Republicans have largely concluded that she won't run.
Bannon, a former naval officer and ex-Goldman Sachs banker, sees his documentary as the first step in Palin's effort to rebuild her image in the eyes of voters who may have soured on her, yet might reconsider if old caricatures begin to fade.

RealClearPolitics was recently given an exclusive screening of a rough cut of the now finished film, which Bannon designed
Sarah is dang smart - somewhere in their black hearts they must have a smidgen of respect for her.
Interesting. She certainly appears to be laying the groundwork for a run. Doesn’t make a whole lot of sense otherwise.
“Bannon intends to premiere the film in Iowa late next month before expanding the release to New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada. After the initial rollout in the four early voting states, the filmmaker will eventually release it to somewhere between 50 and 100 markets nationwide.”
At the very least she keeps it interesting.
She is a true Conservative wife and mother, so who better to extol the virtues of conservatism and explain how it has been the socialist progressives like Obama that really got us into this fiscally unsustainable, benefit/entitlement mentality, that if left uncheck is certainly going to destroy this great nation for our posterity.
This is going to drive the Liberal MSM and their nutroots completely bonkers....
They fear her, and should. The black hearted bastards should also fear We the People. They still do not understand that concept, but will in time.

Parents were
Charles R Heath, born in ID

Both parents were US Citizens at the time of her birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Sarah Palin is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
This is pure genius!
GAME ON!!!
If she does decide to run, “The Undefeated” will be the key element to her initial coming-out party. The film's impending release — and the frenzied media attention that it is sure to generate — will serve as a vivid wake-up call that despite the many obstacles in front of her, Palin’s entry into the race would turn the campaign on its head in an instant, just as it did in 2008.
As she mulls her decision in the coming weeks, the other Republican candidates in the field will be left to prepare for a hibernating grizzly who appears poised to rise up once again.

I luv her....not sure yet if I want her to run for prez....but I luv her.
Love it. The last line especially!
Why not? I luv her because she fight the establishment, the republicans, if we ever are going to get serious about cutting government we need a President that won’t give the inside the beltway Republicans cover not to do the right thing
Hopefully, one of those markets will be Netflix. I no longer "do" movies in theaters, but I'd like to watch this one sooner rather than later. Not that it would change anything about the way I'd vote.....Sarah has my vote (and as soon as she announces, a goodly chunk of my cash).
That’s an excellent point. Beyond targeting specific groups early on in the primaries something like Netflix would get the most views in the shortest time.
I have Netflix as well as I don’t have cable or satellite and never go to the movies. Either see movies on Netflix or DVD.
Ping!!
In the article it says they are looking into a video-on-demand deal. That might include Netflix as well as cable.
Nothing is easier than bamboozling the People. Class warfare has worked like a charm throughout our entire history.
