“Prominent politician”?
Of whom are you speaking about? Palin? She has been out of politics for 6 years now. And even when she was a politician; it was of a small state.
Ummmm...did you miss that part where she ran for Vice president of the United States in the general election? She and her partner got 59,948,323 votes. I think by most any reasonable standard that could be considered "prominent".

Alaska is the biggest state
