After Obama, there is no way America will elect a candidate with no experience. Hopefully Sarah realizes she is not yet ready for the job and puts her country before her own ambitions.

Another Jackass parroting the Left-Wing media and the Progressive Elites in the GOP.

Is that you Karl?

BTW, how much representative experience, from a national perspective did Abraham Lincoln have before he became President?

Two years as a US Congressman.

How much executive experience did Abraham Lincoln, you know, the guy who started the GOP, have before he became President?

Zero!

When offered the position of secretary or governor of the Oregon Territory, he turned it down.

Do you know why?

Because, The territory was a Democratic stronghold and acceptance would have ended his legal and political career in Illinois, so he declined.

Because he took the long view of his career and realized that taking that position would have hindered his effectiveness and also, how far he could go.

Now, do I really have to connect the dots for you here?

Good. Then tell all your allies to quit parading ‘executive experience’ as some kind of absolute golden key to the nomination.

You must be a lawyer.

Lincoln, like Reagan, was a man of vision. Both wanted to change the world and they both did. Sarah, like the Bushes and Clinton, just wants to be the boss. When referencing Reagan or Lincoln, she cannot be even remotely compared. I had to memorize the Gettyburg address in school, so I know the difference.
