Sarah Palin Is Not a Stand-In for Hillary Clinton

You're right, Susan. Gov. Palin is not corrupt, for starters. She's also not shrill. Plus she's nice and has executive experience.

“Sarah Palin Is Not a Stand-In for Hillary Clinton”

For one thing, Hillary isn’t commander in chief of the Alaska National Guard, which contains the 49th Missile Defense Battalion, the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks.

As Governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden’s.

She’s also the commander-in-chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), which is federally recognized and incorporated into Homeland Security’s counterterrorism plans.

Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire country’s defense.  Given Alaska’s proximity to Russia, she may have security clearances we don’t even know about.

According to the Washington Post, she first met with McCain in February, but nobody ever found out.  

This is a woman who can be trusted with the nation’s defense.
