Do you think Sarah Palin is equipped to run this country?

Question

Honestly, if you think she is...give me the facts.

I personally think someone who has more experience fishing then she has knowledge of foreign policy has no business running this country.

Answer 1

Anyone's better than our current president.  Why is everyone so hung up on foreign policy experience?  So many presidents went from state governor to the White House, what foreign policy experience did they get as a governor?  The US was still standing after their terms, we'll be fine after this next one too.

Answer 2

Honestly, the state of Alaska has had a wakeup call, if you can't see that then you might want to keep your eyes closed after the mess we have if Obama is elected and more of his Chicagoland cronies surface.

Answer 3

AS # 2 AT THIS TIME IT IS NOT NEEDED -----SHE IS BRIGHT AND WILL BE UP TO SPEED IN NO TIME --------YOU ALREADY HAVE MCCAIN DEAD . AND YET YOU WANT THAT DU FUSS B.H.O. ELECTED WHO'S ONLY FOREIGN EXPERIENCE IS HIS LAST TRIP OVER THERE. IN FACT OF THE 4 SHE IS THE ONLY ONE RUNNING WITH POLITICAL EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE . AS A SENATOR'S JOB IS LEGISLATIVE NOT EXECUTIVE . BY YOUR OWN STANDARDS B.H.O. IS FAR LESS QUALIFIED TO BE ELECTED. AT LEAST ON THE GOP SIDE THE # 1 IS THE MOST QUALIFIED

Answer 4

No.  she is not qualified to be the VP of the United States, let alone fill the seat of the highest position in government.  

Answer 5

lolhypocrites for the lose

Answer 6

Shes better than Obama.

Answer 7

Sure, why not.  I will never be legally entitled to be the US President, but I bet I could do the job, too.  I would never want it, as it is too much stress for my liking.

Answer 8

THEN THAT RULES OUT OBAMA as well and that idiot is FIRST ON THE TICKET !!

Answer 9

I think she is better equipped than Obama!

City Council 1992-1996: Elected for two terms (4 years)

Mayor: 1996-2002 Elected for two terms, (4 years) Also elected president of the Alaska Conference of Mayors

Ethics Commissioner: 2003-2004 (1 year) Governor Murkowski appointed Palin Ethics Commissioner of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. She resigned in protest over what she called the "lack of ethics" of fellow Alaskan Republican leaders.

Governor: 2006-2008 (2 years)

Palin: Grand total of 11 years in service to elected/appointed positions.

Palin GOVERNED for six years as mayor and Governor.

Obama: Grand total of 9 years in service in elected positions. As Senator (state and federal) his job was to talk about policies, propose policies, and vote on policies. NO EXPERIENCEWITH GOVERNING -- AT ALL!!!!!!!)

Answer 10

I don't think she's equipped at all!  During her vetting she was even quoted as saying, "What exactly does the Vice President do everyday?"    

Answer 11

If Bush can, Palin can.  

Answer 12

No--and evidently it isn't even important to McCain as to whether or not his VP has enough experience or is equipped. He is most interested in getting the Hilary votes and winning the Presidency. I'm not sure McCain cares all that much about America or her people.
