Can you Imagine how hard it would be to try and manage a piece of land that size while trying to make fair the exploration of oil/timber/coal.......etc

Answer 1

By the same token, Obama residing in Hawaii also gives him equal foreign policy experience with Asia.  And also the lost undersea kingdoms of Atlantis and Lemuria.

Answer 2

I think the national government would be interested in her making and interpreting treaties with other nations, as you insinuate.  That's illegal by the Constitution.

Are you saying she doesn't respect and follow the US Constitution?  Interesting argument.

Answer 3

lol..........no.

So the Governor of California has foreign policy experience because they deal with illegal immigrants?? Oh please.

Answer 4

Only pidgeon-brained persons would think so....

JUSTIN H-  You say McCANE is a, "foreign policy genius"? Are you effin serious?

Please put down the pipe!  Because McCANE's foreign policy c**p is ALL HYPE! See Link and see.

Answer 5

I'd say that is certainly not anything to sneeze at.  Not to mention she has John McCain, a foreign policy genius, to mentor her for the next 4-8 years.  She'll get plenty of experience in international politics as Vice President.  

The most important record is that of the Presidential candidate.  We have a solid ticket here, and that scares democrats.

Obama never held office in Hawaii (executive or otherwise), so the answer below me makes no sense.  I'm assuming it's a joke, if so; good one ;)

Answer 6

I like Palin alot, but I really don't think she has to deal that much with Russia, its true that remote islands between the countries are about a mile and a half away, and that the Bearing Straight only separates the mainlands, but I don't think she deals with Putin on a regular basis, or anybody in the Kremlin for that matter, at best maybe a regional governor or some post similar to that, I wouldn't really count that as foreign policy experience, minimal at best. But I still think she is awesome.

Answer 7

You mean like the foreign policy experience Bush had as the governor of a state with the largest border of Mexico?  Yeah, that really taught him how to manage foreign policy!

Answer 8

lol... no
