I think Palin is just as qualified as the current Vice President....hmmmm, what is his name....errr...yeah, Cheney. Uh, what has he done in the last eight years? Thinking real hard here....oh yeah, he SHOT his friend. Hmmm, yup, Palin is just as qualified.

This is my opinion, and the opinion of many other people. Its not just MSM drivel. I do not want her second in command. If he had chosen Paul or Romney I would be a lot more comfortable with him. And there are a lot of people who questioned his choice, so get off the high horse. His mother does not have war injuries. He does. Thats a big difference. These are valid concerns with many people.

Obama's mother died from ovarian cancer. Thanks for making a tragedy like that into a game. Obama's grandmother is still alive, though she is quite ill right now. Obama is in his 40's and has few health issues. McCain is in his 70's and has suffered from several medical complaints.

Questions answered. I don't think the comments about his travel or his travel companions merit a response. Many people take trips abroad.
google Tony Rezko (and his name change from a muslim name btw) and you'll see where the money came from.

Quiz for the Obots: who is the only Presidential canidate to have opened his medical records.

what's barry hiding? his past drug binges?

You have a thread title with "Palin has more FAR..." and you are calling someone stupid?

cue the faux outrage, you guys are good at this, if it's not faux outrage at "racism" then it's this.

it's completely relavant to the discussion, you progressives can't mock JM for his age and health and then ignore BO's own family history and the fact that BO is the one who has still yet to open HIS MEDICAL RECORDS.

pray do tell, do you actually know how many times the VP has had to take over for the President in the course of this nations history? google is your friend.

"education and life experiences" this is akin to "hope and change" , what life experiences will make him a good president? your arguments are like Oblahma, empty.
You just disproved your own point; Palin is not equipped to lead the country or preside of the U.S. Senate; where the average U.S. Senator has far more foreign and domestic policy experience than Palin could ever have.

Perhaps you don't value education, but Obama was able to into Columbia and Harvard on his own merit, and taught Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago; which despite how you feel are no easy feats.
Honestly, I can trust a Harvard and Columbia grad in solving our economic problems more than I can with a grad from the Naval Academy or the University of Idaho; although I mean no offense so anyone who graduated from there.

Whether or not you want to admit it, Obama has plenty of life experience from working as community organizer in the south side of Chicago; an inter-city neighborhood. As for Sarah Palin, the only life experiences she has are limited to a small town in Alaska with a population of only 6,500 people. I have no idea how she can relate to anyone in the lower 48 states.
