I feel comfortable with an average person as a VICE-PRESIDENT, since if McCain wins (which nobody is speculating last time I checked) that's what she'd be. Unless McCain keels over, then yea. Too much focus on her instead of McCain though, who's actually running for the presidency.

You obviously don't know the function of Vice Presidents.
They should not be underqualified by any means.

Anyways, my favorite Palin image is:

If you watched the debate, this yields so incredibly true.

I hate republicans. I'm not even a democrat, I'm just an anti-republican. The vast majority are idiots who contradict themselves or believe things that don't make sense. I'm sure some democrats are idiots too, but not as many.

I must say, if you not from america, thats no wonder.

Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, be it what you will, Sarah Palin is an idiot regardless.

She's an average person. An average person shouldn't be running for potential president.

I wouldn't say she's an average person. Her career is exactly what a career of a politician should look like. She started with a small town, then went for a governor, now a vicepresident candidate. An average person doesn't usually govern Alaska.

It's Alaska. She's definitely an average person, as mentioned by about everyone who's watched her be interviewed/watched the debates.

And Saber, she's effectively running for president. With McCain's health record, what do you think the odds are of him dying in office? Not that bad.
 
If I were an American citizen I would be considering myself republican, yet I must say that what I have seen of Palin so far, she appears to be chosen solely for being a female, a way to gather more votes to the republican party once it's election time. Can't say I like the choice, but they must have weighed the pros and the cons and come to this conclusion.

Pff, they re-elected Bush and you guys are still wondering if they'll elect someone as extremist, stupid and conservative as Mccain / Palin? Seriously, it's already proven that more than 50% of the American voters don't have brains, there's no real point anymore in debating about it.

Look at it this way: Every minute John McCain would be in office, is a minute Sarah Palin would be in office.

And after a few of those minutes, John McCain would go ker-plunk, and Sarah Palin would be president.

Imagine the hell that would cause? The United States would probably seek a position under the United Kingdom for safety for Christ's sake.

It's not that Americans are stupid or bad at voting, we just have crappy candidates. Our last two elections were 50-50 votes. Indecision of that magnitude is proof enough that the candidates were both crap. (On top of that, Bush was reelected because his opponent quit. Hey, thanks for making half of Americas votes worth nothing. Why don't they give everybody who voted for him a revote?)

I'll call it now:
50% for Obama.
49% for McCain.
1% for Ron Paul.


...Okay so maybe America doesn't always choose the best guy.

Ron Paul 2012!

No, it actually is that we are pretty stupid when it comes to voting. Hardly anyone knows the stance of BOTH candidates. Hell, I'd bargain only 15% of America votes based on actual educated opinions, and that's an optimistic estimate.
(On top of that, Bush was reelected because his opponent quit. Hey, thanks for making half of Americas votes worth nothing. Why don't they give everybody who voted for him a revote?)
He essentially dropped out because things were looking not in his favor, plus, it was down to the deciding state which was going for GW. While I don't see the point in dropping out, I don't see the point in criticizing Kerry for it.

50% for Obama.
49% for McCain.
1% for Ron Paul.
Someone doesn't know how electoral college works D:

Is this a new revelation for you?

Saying "Sarah Palin is an idiot" is a bit retarded and childish. An idiot couldn't have gotten into the position she is in today.

Anyway, I am not really republican or democratic. But if I was forced to vote, I'd go for Mccain.

People should grow up. And stop being idiots. I HATE it when people say things like "Sarah Palin is ugly!" or something to that extent. No one talks about the real solutions and plans involved. The internet is obviously the worst with this. Go to youtube for instance. Most of the comments are something like "Mccain is a fag!", or "Obama is black! He sucks!". Its just childish and stupid.

Here is a challenge for all the next posters.
1. Do not say anything about the actual person. Say something about the plan.
2. Don't just say "Blah Blah's campaign sucks!". Give valid reasons why. With proof.
3. Stop with the retarded things like "Democrats are stupid!". Because obviously, all people are different. Even if they follow the same party.

PS. And please, don't say anything offensive. Mccain and Obama both are good people. A mature person treats them both with respect. After all, this site is for 14+ people. Not 2+ people. So please, be mature.

Quite frankly, I'd love to bash commentate on Sarah Palin's political views, but I don't really know them as she never answers the questions presented to her.
As for McCain and Obama, I'd elect Obama any day. He has great policies to help the middle class and alternate energy plans, and not to mention is quite inspiring in his speeches, and inspiration is something we really need after the past eight years.

Thank you. A very mature comment.

Although, about Obama and his speeches. Speeches are all good and well for a short time. But they solve no real problems. They just stuff a bunch of "fluff" in our heads. I like it when the president is just quite frank. As for his energy plans, I have not looked a whole lot into it. But from what I have seen, I don't like it to much. Although, his plans are good.

Both plans are good. I am not going to point out that one "sucks" or is "lame". I just think that one is better than the other. Please, guys, see it this way. I have seen to many of these types of conversations turn into childish and petty flame wars.

There isn't one. It's all a bunch of talk. They are politicians.
Because obviously, all people are different. Even if they follow the same party.
A politician is a politician. Ron Paul is the only candidate that is different. He's not a politician.
Mccain and Obama both are good people.
That's not enough. Also, I have my doubts.
A mature person treats them both with respect.
Forgive me for my insolence.

The last 2 elections, and probably the recent ones before that (forgive my age), we a decision to choose the lesser of two evils.
With Ron Paul running, why waste a vote on the lesser of two evils when you can vote for someone who is going to address the real problems, correctly? Namely, the economy.

Want proof? Sorry, but someone who wouldn't mind a war with Russia and abuse power by dismissing a person in the army because is his sister somewhere involved, isn't suitable for such a position.

And wtf is this about Barrack Osama on election poll sheets? :S

Hello. Anyone who doesn't think that Palin is seriously retarded obviously hasn't seen any of her interviews.

She spends one year as governor of the most backward-ass state in America, and now suddenly she's angling to become Vice President of the United States.

The fact of the matter is that she is the antichrist, and as such I don't want her anywhere NEAR the White House.

And before you call me Commy scum I'll have you know that I'm a Libertarian. Not that there's anything wrong with being a Communist.

I mean, sure, the fact that her 17-year-old daughter is pregnant? Totally irrelevant media trash. The fact that her only foreign affairs experience is being able to see Russia from her house? Absolutely fucking imperative.

As a matter of fact, she can't see Russia from her house. A grand total of one Alaskan politician has ever been to the one island where you can physically see Russia, and I don't believe it was a governor.

On a side note, w00t Alaskan natives that throw their garbage straight into the sea and pollute the Siberian coast!
