Presidential scholars say she appears to be the least experienced, least credentialed person to join a major-party ticket in the modern era.
Not much of scholars if they do not know that Obama is currently running on a major party ticket. How is he more experienced and more credentialed then Palin.
At least she believes she is an American. Obama believes he is a world citizen....
“Not to belittle Alaska, but its different than the basket of issues you deal with in big, dynamic states. Dallek said.”
Obama cowardly voted “present” most of the time in Illinois.
I think to be considered a “presidential historian” you have to have written a fawning biography of a Democratic president.
What's next, the letter from 400 historians? Not only do the Democrats have no new ideas, they don't even have any new attack modes. |
She ran a company, a city and a state government, was chairwoman of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, yet they’re saying she is less experienced than Senator Obama, who was in the U.S. Senate for 143 days before deciding he was presidential material? Hahahahahaha! What a hoot!!
Between Senator John McCain’s 23 years in the Navy and her many years as an executive, it’s not even a contest. I worked 15 years at the State Employment Commission, so I know exactly what a “community organizer” does, and just that should DISQUALIFY him from ANY political office!!
This piece is like Joseph Goebbels writing from the bunker in Berlin about what a bunch of “inexperienced” amatuers Ike, Bradley and Patton are.
“scholars”?
not experts, but “scholars”!
The DBM think Mr. and Mrs. America are THAT stupid.
How many of these presidential 'scholars' took on the establishment at their universities at the risk of their tenure track?
KMAR - they can kiss my a** running.
Leftists afraid of a conservitave, family oriented, God honoring non-lawyered effective woman. She's like garlic to them........ahahahahahahahahahahahah! They really are flummoxed by her. As Sammy Davis Jr. would say, "Thats a gas, man"'.
Probably speaking to the choir here, but I’m tired of seeing Alaska called a small state — an easy state to govern.
When you think about its size, lack of borders with the continental states, and unique tax issues regarding natural resources, it is a very challenging state to govern that presents an array of unique problems that no other state has to deal with.
By my reading she is at least as credentialed as Harry Truman (whose election victories to the Senate are quite “suspect”). And, he didn’t do too badly.
She has plenty of experience and credentials. And, given that Obama, who has none, is on the top of the other party's ticket, these scholars are either stupid or lying.
let them know how you feel:

The end comment was classic!! The Campaign is off to a great start!!! We are knocking down every kingpin they put up!!
GO McCAIN/PALIN!!!
Here it is - “Update: After reading this article, the McCain campaign issued the following statement: “The authors quote four scholars attacking Gov. Palin’s fitness for the office of Vice President. Among them, David Kennedy is a maxed out Obama donor, Joel Goldstein is also an Obama donor, and Doris Kearns Goodwin has donated exclusively to Democrats this cycle. Finally, Matthew Dallek is a former speech writer for Dick Gephardt. This is not a story about scholars questioning Governor Palin’s credentials so much as partisan Democrats who would find a reason to disqualify or discount any nominee put forward by Senator McCain.”
no kiddin’
one so called “scholar” is a university law professor...
ummm....ObamaNation was a....
university law professor.
Another swing and a miss.
“The fact that he would have to go to somebody who is clearly unqualified to be president makes Obama look like an elder statesman.
Stopped reading right there. Waste of my time...liberals will have to do better than this tripe...
NEXT!
