How many rich engineers do you see that can't even properly talk?
And how many great debaters or speakers do you see that have little money because all they know to do is talk?
You see these types of people at work.
People equate speech to intelligence. Speech does not always equate to intelligence although in my opinion Palin has a LOT to work on because her interview skills really suck. She has prepared speech skills but her interview skills really need a huge overhaul.
Obama to me is just full of hot air. He reminds me of any arrogant Black man who really has no real accomplishments and leadership to show. He fools people by his great speeches and debates but how far will he go?
Most engineers do occasionally have to present their work, though.
They have to Know What They Are Talking About.
Even Ronald Reagan, a B actor, was able to get an idea across, and he became known as the Great Communicator.
I just don't think Sarah Palin has a whole lot of depth to back up her pitbull persona.
As for Obama, I don't know where you get this "any Black man" business.
Anyway, I think he can handle the responsibility. To me, real leadership is getting people to believe in their own abilities so that you are able to visualize--and delegate. I think he has shown that he can do this.

No accomplishments..no leadership to show!!!! Ya um ok...it's one thing to be in support of Palin but to distort the facts about Obama and then inject race into it....please.....his resume far surpases hers...
What a toxic political brand republicans have become. I can't believe I was a lifelong republican until now. McCain has revealed he is not a serious candidate by nominating such an unserious person to be VP.
With an incredibly complex financial crisis on our hands, we cannot afford to have somebody a heartbeat away from the presidency who lacks the IQ to even understand the basics of the problem. Palin probably hasn't even worked with or known an investment banker in her life.
Obama has never dealt with anything like this. But neither has McCain. And he will most likely die during his term if he was elected, leaving that idiot Palin in charge. This is about brains people, not experience.
Wow and Biden is better give me a break, that guy needs a muzzle. Palin is not a normal Politician, she does not play the political games. Trust me I have no ploblem voting for someone with an 85% approval rating like she does. I dont know of any other politician with that kind of approval. Nice try though.
Wait wait, so she was just trying to "fool" us all into THINKING she's a moron in the Gibson and Couric interviews? She's been saving it all up for the debate so she can really WOW people?
It's a helluva strategy, dontcha know. The old surprise switcherooney. 'Cause surprise is what energizes the party, you betcha.
I care about people who can solve problems rather than having a walking encyclopedia who can spout out history from their memories. Any information can easily be researched from the Internet. If she needs to solve a US problem, she can easily research for history of what worked and what didn't work and formulate a solution. She is not stupid or she would not be where she is at.
If the only qualification for president is to be able to get information off the Internet, why don't we just pick names out of a hat?

Usually, intelligent people are able to speak well. They kinda go together.........and ah'm so sorry that Obama is so uppity that he actually thinks he could be President. Doesn't he know that he's supposed to stay in his place?

That cannot be done because
(a) you wouldn't know if the pick has 5 children (Palin says she is "real" because of this accomplishment)
(b) you wouldn't know which countries the pick could see from their house
(meaning, no foreign policy experience).
Won't work!
So the people you should be kissing right now to get what you want is the CONGRESS because they will be running the country for the next 4 years. We have two idiot candidates for presidents.

If you think she's not a normal politician, why don't you look into troopergate. Who CARES what her approval rating is! have you heard the woman SPEAK recently??? Did you watch the interviews???? She is an IDIOT. (And where did you get the 85% approval rating - the highest I heard was 80%)
I would rather have a candidate who can form a coherent sentence.
