Sarah Palin... Ronald Reagan wearing a skirt in my opinion... :)

I am praying for you Sarah.

All she needs to win is Ronnie's calm but strong sense of leadership in upholding the letter of the Constitution.

(Her campaign speeches need to be conversational, not shrill nor lecturing like all the other politicians like the Hildabeast.)

I love Sarah. I can’t see how she is capable of doing the job, however. Shouldn’t she be running for congress to build a resume and grow her experience?

[caww]

I'm just curious, since years of experience can't be much of an issue with the public, as we've observed in this last election. (Bo was “present” while Palin was obviously a mover and a shaker during that time) What experience would you like to see which you think she's lacking at this time?

[HospiceNurse]

POTUS is the most powerful position on earth. Obama’s lack of experience is a warning, not an excuse.

I would like to see years of large-scale executive experience, military experience, successful experience.

Sarah is 20 years away from being qualified.

[caww]

Well I can’t blame you for wanting this. Would be favorable in a corporate ceo position as well. So whose running that has these qualifications now? Romney doesn’t qualify, and he seems to be favored by some. Newt and Ruddy won’t meet the conservative test either, as any conservative knows. So if the election were this week who would you recommend?

[mazda77]

Just like Obama did? Right, got it.

Nurse, heal thyself.
What exactly could a President Palin not handle effectively? And please explain why she couldn't.

"Shouldn’t she be running for congress to build a resume and grow her experience?"

No. Historically, members of Congress are rarely elected to the Presidency. Her service as governor already trumps service in Congress. And forget "building a resume"---remember Bush I.

Her lack of being a DC insider is EXACTLY the reason many find her so appealing.

There are millions of people who are as well qualified (and not DC insiders). She is an attractive celebrity.

[HospiceNurse]

I don't know. That's what primaries are for. I would like someone who has won tough elections, someone with international experience, someone with BIG life accomplishments, someone who has military experience, someone who has large scale executive experience.

Wow. Just wow.

In one sentence, you've completely jumped the shark. Millions of people are as well qualified? How many sitting and ex-governors are there? How many mayors, council people, etc?

Of those, which has business experience, along with a succinct public speaking ability? Which has or is raising five children while balancing a public life? Which is staunchly pro-life, and pro-America?

I want some of what you're smoking. You sound completely delusional!
