Ok Hypothetically speaking, let's say .. McCain won the election .. If, (god forbid) McCain DID pass away while he was president, you would be 100% fine and dandy with the VP of his choice to now run our country?

Please let us keep in mind that she has a family, with 5 children .. as well as little experience even as VP.

  1. Yep.  What's really nice is she's already got negotiating experience with Russia, who has been kind of worrying me lately.


  2. yes. and what president DOESN'T have a family?

    just from looking at her i trust her more than obama, at any rate. he's just a sweet-talker.

  3. Consider your Presidential choice, who would be President from day one.  Less time as a senator than she has as a governor.  Governor is clearly the job out of the two that prepares a person for the Presidency better.   Obama has no foreign policy experience at all, Palin at least has SOME.  There is no logical reason for you guys to be OK with inexperienced Obama as President over slightly more experienced Palin as President.    

  4. Yes I would.

    Research Alaska a bit, and then you may see the brilliance behind Senator McCain's decision.  Unlike many other states, Alaska borders no state, but is bordered by a foreign country to its East (Canada) and, by sea, is about four miles from territory  claimed by Russia.  She's already, as a course of business as Governor, had to deal with those nations over issues like oil, trade, fishing rights, transportation, and others.  Not to mention that Senator McCain shifted the energy debate to the Vice-Presidents, and now Senator Biden is not going to be able to fully play his strengths.  Brilliant.

  5. Obama has even less than Her, so what's your point?

  6. Yup.  She's not a socialist with a 20 year relationship to a guy who bombed the Pentagon(killing like 3/4 people).  She digs hockey( contact sport).  Obama digs hoop( wuss sport).  I want a tough guy in the white house.  She's tougher in her skirt than Obama in his pink sneaks.

    By the way, way to rock the skirt in your acceptance speech Palin.  No pant suit like Hillary.  

  7. The assumptions in your question are their own self-fulfilling prophecies.

    The President doesn't "run" the country. Executive powers are vague and few where the powers of Congress are clear and concisely spelled out.

    How can we let ourselves 'unlearn' or forget that all in attendance at the Constitutional Convention had, by that time, made the difficult decisions to turn against their beloved King, wage battle against his troops, watch their own troops die in slaughter after slaughter ... all for a single purpose?

    To craft a government, deriving its just powers from the consent of the governed; with nothing but the most necessary and acceptable governance to stand between the people and the wages of their labor?

    There is very likely a Heaven mortals never see. But we DO see this experiment in self-government. We know it's alive and well 221 years since 'early this morning' when the Constitution was ratified and handed off to us in a relay race addressed to Perpetuity.

    Those who fought bitterly and in intense jealous fits of rage at the Philadelphia Convention were free to leave at will. Some did, in fact, walk out. But, in the end, they all returned.

    Why?

    What could have made it worth all the anxiety, the compromise, the voluntary silencing of pride? What made them all, time and again, pick up where they'd left off and wrestle to the completion?

    They did it, schmaltzy as it may sound, for whoever we are.

    They'd seen too much fury, too much warfare, too much carnage on too many battlefields and rivers blood-red to walk out knowing some future generation might bear witness to it all again.

    Fact is, they didn't know us and we wouldn't know any of them if they were standing in front of us. But is there any question who owes the greater debt to whom?

    If we could feel their bitterness toward unquestioned, Monarchical Reign, I'm confident that we would never view these Congressional elections so flippantly again. Never see the president cast in the light of a Monarch.

    The President is to the United States what a "sacrificial workpiece" is to a carpenter: often, to make an accurate saw-cut, we put an insignificant piece of scrap-wood in a holding position over the actual workpiece to protect our hands. When the workpiece is cut, the sacrificial piece is discarded.

    Every president we're honored to regard as a "great leader" earned Our respect somewhere in the acceptance that the Executive branch is only a sacrificial, temporary reminder of the intolerable suffering those Revolutionaries forced off their shoulders and continued to fortress themselves from...in the interest of Posterity.

    ...

  8. Yes, I would.  Why put a less experienced person straight in the White House that doesn't even need a 'hypothetical' situation to get there?  The Democrats are showing themselves to be not only chauvinists but overly morbid.  Stop with the McCain dying questions already.  

    lawrenceba549:  Interesting post.  Well said.

  9. Too many are blind and would say it was "god's gift".

  10. works for me

    Mccain/Palin 2008

  11. Yes I would, Palin has more executive experience than

    Obama. I don't see how having a family makes her any less capable then a man. That's a sexiest thing to say.

  12. Star for you babe....

    P.S. don't believe them...

    they are grieving for the lost of the McCain/Romney ticket... poor babies

  13. She has more experience than Barry does, so yes I would feel very comfortable. And McCain is going to win.

  14. Yes. She has proven she is a good governor. Being a governor is much more difficult than being a senator or state legislator.

    As per the U.S. Constitution, states are setup to mimic the U.S. government.

    Governors have to deal with spending, deficits, economics, jobs,  passing laws, etc., etc.. Governors also work 60 hour work weeks are are on call 24/7 while people in congress have summers off and don't have busy schedules.

    U.S. Constitution: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion"

  15. YES, I am very pleased about his choice.  I was considering voting for Obama, but I am now voting McCain-Palin. I think she will be just fine. She and McCain will pick some top people as aids, Chief of Staff, I think she has a good head on her shoulders.

    If she was a lib, I bet she would of KILL that last one.  She is pro life, she is a Mother, she will do just fine.  

  16. She is a million times better than that pimp community organizer who is a friend of terrorist bill ayres.  

  17.       Never,she is not ready to run the United States,, and this is an understatement !.Just like McCain not knowing he owned seven homes,,,, LOL,,

         And he pays like two and three hundred for every pair of shoes,,While Americans will have to pay for all his flip flops if he becomes president,,


  18. Al you people come on here and ask about experience. Where did you all get your experience so that you may judge others. Surprise but God didnt have experience when he made this earth nor Mother Nature in running it, but you all think youre good enough to judge whether she will be a good VP or not. If all of you are so good at judging then maybe you should be running instead of Obama who has basically no experience running anything either. God help us as Allah wont

  19. Yes, I would. I'm not one of those people who believe that a person needs a whole lot of experience to be President. I know she hasn't had too much experience even being the governor of Alaska but she strikes me as  a person of values, character, and one who can see right from wrong and does not shy away from championing the cause of right. I for one am tired of the same ol' politics as usual and regardless of what Obama says, he will bring just the same political nonsense to the White House as what has been there for years. I would place 100% of my confidence in Palin''s ability to lead and to do what is right for the country. A CEO of a company does not always know all aspects of how that company operates day in and day out. That is why he/she ensures that the other people in the organization knows what they are doing.

  20. Without a doubt.

  21. She would make a great president. Way better than Obama.

    She has more experience than Obama and during 2 years as a Governor she has done many more things than Obama as a Senator.

    And Obama has kids too.

  22. Im a supporter but im true to my word. I really didn't know of Palin until he "McCain" elected her as his Vice P. Now we all are sayin she could do the job but on the real we just want McCain in the chair and not Obama. Also, I don't want her to run our country because she has a "baby" to tend too. I really think he picked her to get more people on our side because of how the way the Democrats party was going... It really pissed me off. Honestly why pick someone who just had a child, a premature one at that? She needs to be there for that child more then anything. She may have some qualities but just like they said on the news... " It was a stupid decision". If Obama wins, I won't be mad at all... He had a woman along his side, so your going to do the same? I don't think she would be able to run the country now or anytime in the future. Like I said I'm true to my word and it's not judging...It's my opinion... Answer the question she asked and don't come back at what i had to say...

  23. Yes. I am not old enough to vote,  but dont think i dont know anything about it bcuz of my age. i watched her speech tonight on FOX and i was really very impressed. she looks like she can carry herself well

    hopefully he does not pass, but if he did, as u sed God forbid i wud ttly trust her.
