Your thought does make Sarah sound Presidential.
I worry about her lack of experience and ability to unite a party and co-opt a Congress the way Reagan did.
Ronald Reagan was disliked or worse by democrats, because he left their party, and Ronald Reagan gave the democrats total grief, for the democrats knew he was an effective leader. The republican establishment, of the time, thought of Ronald Reagan in much the same way as the democrats. Now substitute Sarah Palin in place of Ronald Reagan's name and there is the same picture again.
Leadership at the national level is very different from that at the state level.
imho...this is not valid given many governors have served as President of the United States. One state or fifty states, Leadership is Leadership. Zer0 has near Zer0. Zer0 could not be in the same room with Sarah. Zer0 is near nonhuman or maybe completely nonhuman. Sarah is human. mho....I will take a human over a nonhuman any day, anytime.

None taken. I hope you are correct about Palin because if she does run, it will be the biggest media firestorm since Barry Goldwater. Bush taught us the old adage is true and regardless of the world, it is the U.S. economy that controls elections and Obamba, to say the least, is vulnerable.
The irony to me is that the attacks on Palin for a show that depicts her in a non-political setting are similar to those attacking her daughter when she was a dance contestant. They help her and push the perception of the left further left, something the Democratic party does not need.
Either way, the campaign would be all about Sarah and not about Obama’s failures. If she is up for that challenge and can ignore and overcome it the way Reagan did, she could win. If she were to give a Goldwater, “extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice” go to hell speech, look out.
I mentioned Carter and Wilson being smart. No one in the White House was smarter than Reagan with the possible exception of FDR. Both led with conviction and charm, a devastating and effective combination.
Being right is essential but not enough. I am certain we both have many friends who voted for Obama and are looking for a way out. As long as Obama is the story, he will lose.
