Posted this on another thread, but it bears repeating.
When looking at Sarah Palin, the term ‘rugged individual’ does not immediately come to mind. But the facts tell a different story. She and her family are just that, ‘rugged individuals’ with highly developed faith-based brains and backbones. She is wise enough to know that the days of disastrous, archaic, behind-the-scenes political game-playing are coming to an end. And, she was not afraid to cut the cord and enter the full light of the arena as an unfettered ‘rugged individual’; ready to take on the big boys on their own turf — no stealth, no vagaries, no lies. With a new paradigm, it doesn’t matter if she’s President or messenger. It’s unlikely she cares: unless a specific role will further the urgent and righteous struggle to preserve the Constitution and US Sovereignty.
The idea at the core of sociologist Charles Cooley’s theory that people see themselves through the mirror-like perceptions of others is:
"Each to each a looking-glass
Reflects the other that doth pass."
The weak, fearful, morally bankrupt lot that mock and malign Sarah Palin apparently don’t much care for their reflections when they look at the brave, bodacious, beautiful spirit in the Palin mirror.
When the street savvy ex-mayor of San Francisco declared her stepping down as Governor “brilliant”, his observation was correct.
We the people are ready to join the fray. All she has to do is signal when ready.
