Well of course it's not. And she went to 5 different colleges before she got a Bachelors degree but I'll bet that's because she wanted to see the world.
How do I know???? Obama ADMITTED he had poor grades at OCCIDENTAL COLLEGE. Now, what could possibly propel one from being a poor student at Occidental to COLUMBIA? Would a white student who had poor grades be able to make that leap?
First of all, he went to Harvad Law. Secondly, grades are not the only factor the schools look for in determining your acceptance. Neither is race. Community activism (or having no responsiblities as Palin said), LSAT scores, family history, and recommendations can actually play the deciding role.
Believe me, there are plenty of white people with less that par grades who make it into great school because of other factors. The Naval Academy is no run-of-the-mill school. Obviously McCain had low grades, how do you think he made it into the Naval Academy? Are we going to claim Affirmative Action, too? No. Why?
It's hilarious to think if a minority succeeds then it MUST be because of Affirmative Action. But when you have a dunderhead like McCain get into the Naval Academy, it MUST have been because he was qualified, when his grades prove otherwise.

So how does this prove your point that Hillary was a more qualified candidate? I guess you are so deadset on believing that Obama is an Affirmative Action recipient, that you could NEVER believe that he might have actually been accepted off of his qualifications. Unbelieveable.

Passed her over? This is America. We vote. If she was worried that she wasn't going to be the nominee, then she shouldn't have agreed to the rules that the DNC set forth in the early stages of her campaign. I cannot believe that there are still people who are still sore losers about that. Be mad at Hillary, no one else. It was her own previously inflated ego that made her believe that she would win regardless. She didn't. Get over it.
By the way, why would you vote for McCain if you supported Hillary? You know Hillary and Barack have A LOT more in common on issues than Hillary and McCain. Therefore, why would you vote for a candidate who has viewpoints that are almost the polar opposite of Hillary's? Why not just stay at home on Election Day and remain bitter? Or are you one of those who thinks you're going to teach the Democratic party a lesson?

I hope that's sarcastic.
Hawaii, Alaska and Idaho?
Lot of distance there, but hardly qualifies as seeing the world.
Breaking news???? Something that occurred over 25 years ago???? Why are you people so fixated on everything Palin, even when it's really old and irrelevant????
We'll remember this the next time you rant about birth certificates and crimes committed when Obama was 8.

Because she scares the crap out of them. If she didn't, they wouldn't CARE about her. The talk about how Obama has it cinched but they don't really believe that or they wouldn't be so fixated on Palin.
