Big crowds are being urged to flood the openings of The Undefeated, the movie about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's political rise, the latest indication that the 2008 vice presidential nominee is still looking for a signal from the public that it wants her to run for president.
In a blast email, "Team Sarah" asked supporters to start buying tickets to premiers in cities like Indianapolis, Orlando and Phoenix. "You can be the spark that becomes a grassroots revolution helping to ignite, solidify, inform, and unify Americans around the values that Sarah Palin represents, and, frankly, it isn't that terribly hard!," said the email. "Team Sarah wants to see "The Undefeated" become a BIG success and we are treating this like OPENING DAY in a long battle to promote the VALUES we see that Sarah Palin represents! But, we need to ACT! Please don't waste time."
Palin has been showing the movie in Iowa and a few other places, but supporters feel that having a successful opening will prove that she remains politically relevant and influence her decision to run for the White House.
A message to all members of Team Sarah:
Team,
You can be the spark that becomes a grassroots revolution helping to ignite, solidify, inform, and unify Americans around the values that Sarah Palin represents, and, frankly, it isn't that terribly hard!.
Team Sarah wants to see The Undefeated become a BIG success and we are treating this like OPENING DAY in a long battle to promote the VALUES we see that Sarah Palin represents!
But, we need to ACT!
Please don't waste time.
Click on the link below and start purchasing your tickets for Opening Weekend July 15, 16, and 17:
We need to SELL OUT the evening shows on July 15th and 16th if you BELIEVE IN THE MESSAGING and VALUES OF THIS FILM. if you believe in Sarah Palin and the values she represents in the country today, now is YOUR CHANCE to stand up and make a HUGE IMPACT with what amounts to only a little effort.
The Undefeated needs strong attendance to roll out across the country in subsequent weeks. Your fellow Americans DESERVE to see this movie just like you did. Strong attendance, we believe, will also send a strong message to the liberal media elites and their political cronies- that Americans are hungry for REAL leaders who can navigate tough storms instead of sound-biting their way along to pander for votes or media support.
As one of Sarah Palin's supporters, only YOU can help make this happen!!!
Watch what Gov. Palin Says about the film.
Together we can make this happen, and it starts by getting people in to see this movie. Please click on the link now and purchase your first chunk of tickets to take family, friends, co-workers and others to see the movie July 15, 16, and 17.
Encourage other Sarah Palin supporters to purchase a minimum of 5 tickets to the first nights Friday evening performances.

THEY ARE SCARED SH!TLESS of what's coming!!
With all due respect...me thinks you got your head deeply up your backside and, if you’re not careful - the aroma, associated with your view, is going to poison your value to this forum.
man I wish there was a “like” button on FR ...
Ah, another great mind heard from...care to actually comment on the law...or is that above your pay grade?
(rhymes with 'tack')
Now you seem to be making the argument that because the law has never been applied to a former governor or after the term has expired that it never will be. Of course one would not expect it to have been tried since it was enacted only 12 years ago, in 1999. How many 'former' governors has Alaska had since then, two, including Palin?
And, your notion that it is not intended for former officials might make sense except for this pesky little line...
"(b) A person may file a complaint with the attorney general regarding the conduct of a current or former public officer."
Highlight "former".
You suggest that the law would not apply to persons, "Because while it might apply comfortably to undying legal entities such as asbestos makers, it is completely alien to individual human persons who once were officers of a government, and for exellent reasons.
Asbestos makers? Undying legal entities? Completely alien to individual human persons? --- the law is specific to "current or former public officer(s)", which would all be "individual human persons".
You do seem to trip over a truth here...
"The proper structure, for those who would attempt to attack Palin one more time by this novel route, would be to find new evidence, in the email dump or elsewhere, that they could then relate to something the could prove they "discovered" during the term."
Why in God's name do you think they devoted all those man hours digging through 24,000 pages of e-mails?
All it would take would be a handful of complaints and the news cycle would jump-start and run for weeks, regardless of the outcome.
Not only would any new complaints be fodder for the opposition but they would serve up a perfectly "legitimate" excuse for re-hashing the old ones...the ones that, according to many here, forced her to quit....which would, of course, shine a new light on that little bit of theater.
The Trademark must not be questioned.
“Palin has been showing the movie in Iowa and a few other places...”
Liar, liar, pants on fire, nuff said.
Perot fell off when he quit the campaign after seeing bad boogers out to harm his family behind every bush, then he rentered the campaign, but never recovered his mojo.
It won’t be showing anywhere near us either. But, what the Wife and I intend to do is purchase two tickets where it is being shown, then send them to state O4P nearest to the showing venue. That way hopefully they can pass them on to others.
One can’t argue against a delusion, but I certainly applaud your efforts. To cherry pick unrelated citations from a law and attempt to string together a seemingly logical argument is possibly a sign of some deep seeded psychosis requiring professional help..
Damn! I’ve been voting my zip code in almost everyday!!
If you spent half as much time helping Jim fundraise as you do attacking Gov. Sarah Palin, we probably wouldn’t have another FReepathon before Piper’s 21st Birthday.
Waiting for this disgusting post to be removed.
PIG!
That was quick.....PIG.
What a wonderful idea!
Crickets .
As for this passage,
"(b) A person may file a complaint with the attorney general regarding the conduct of a current or former public officer."
you seem not to be paying attention to the gist of my argument. Were you like this in law school? Of course a filing can happen after the term. That is the point of the two year discovery rule. A discovery of alleged wrongdoing may not immediately turn up all the evidence necessary, or other factors may interfere with the timely filing, such as finding an attorney with the right experience, etc.
But that has nothing to do with the jurisdiction question. If discovery happens within the term, all is well. If discovery happens after the term, that is what there is no precedent for, and that is what is mitigated against by the carve-out of 39.52.250, which you have also refused to address. Jurisdiction is not a triviality. Courts will not presume to have jurisdiction unless it is clearly spelled out that they do have it. 39.52.250 is the very act of spelling out an extension of jurisdiction for former officers seeking advisory opinions, implying the normal terminus of said jurisdiction occurs at the end of a term. The exception proves the rule.
As for why dig through all those emails, the question has already been asked and answered, but I am not above repeating myself if it will help you. A claim of discovery of a wrong does not require that all evidence that can be brought at trial be instantly available at the moment of initial discovery. The whole point of initiating a claim is that it allows for the further discovery of supporting evidence by locking in the jurisdiction. And after the jurisdiction is locked in, new evidence can be dredged up at any point between the initial recognition of a problem to the moment of filing. The email dump fills that bill very nicely. But jurisdiction, after it has lapsed, cannot be extended, and that is what your discovery rule does, and all it does, extend existing jurisdiction. Really, I am quite surprised you do not know all this. Civ Pro bro.
Furthermore, didn't the "crowd-sourcing" get your attention? Why accelerate the process to hyper-drive by enlisting thousands of extra eyes in the search? Could it be they know, as I know, and as my colleagues in Alaska know, they don't have the "forever" you are positing? Hmmmm?
Trust me. I am interested in your theory. I really am. I am also interested in better evidence than what you have provided. Much better evidence. I am really very surprised you do not seem to sense how weak your scheme of statutory construction is. Nobody I know in the legal profession would make the assumption of infinite liability you are making. No one. But when I do complete my research, which cannot begin in earnest for a number of weeks, I will be sure to let you know what I find out. Im sure that will put both our minds to rest.
Indeed. Either that or a paycheck. One never knows. But thanks for the support. :)
