Palin says she’s ‘seriously interested’ in 2016 campaign

[Redress]

When the American electorate chose Barrack Obama to be their president, twice, it demonstrated that no matter how empty the resume, how inexperienced and awkward the candidate, anyone can become President in a celebrity culture. All anyone has to do, like BHO, is to fool enough of the people enough of the time. That's it.

Certainly it's going to be a circus but the electorate always gets what they deserve.

I think it would be more accurate to say that no matter how bad Obama was, the republican candidate was noticeably worse.

 

[TheDemSocialist]

Please run! Pllllleeeaaasssseeeee! America needs your vast amount of knowledge!

 

[Redress]

I really don't think anyone holds Palin up to any measurable standard. Name any presidential candidate , Repub or Dem, who during this campaign season would seriously hold a sign like that?

I really don't see the problem with it. It is misguided and stupid to do it, but it really is not that big a deal.

Obama wasn't a Senator long enough to learn anything about the job...and the tactics he used to become Senator were despicable. He was a lawyer who specialized in community activism...I doubt he was ever involved in an actual trial. From his actions in respect to the Constitution, it is obvious that he has no realistic understand of Constitutional Law...someone paid him money for nothing.

He was still a senator, lawyer, and Constitutional Law professor. We can discuss the quality of his education or his merit in another thread, but he is vastly more qualified than Sarah Palin who was a governor of Alaska for three years.

btw, can you give me a link to the quote in which Palin ever said she can see Russia from her house? I don't think you can.

Pretty much the only thing you can say that Obama is better than Palin at is campaigning. He's a master at that. Palin is a MUCH better leader.

That's laughable given she had to quit on the job of leading the small state of Alaska while Obama has been able to lead a country for six years to date.

Prove that any of those did their adultery in the Oval Office. You do understand there are other rooms in the White House, right?

Chester A. Arthur single handedly eliminated the national debt by charging women $200 per person to have sex with him in the White House. Even at his age, he managed nearly 10 women per day with the money going into the treasury.

 

[beefheart]

Obama was CLEARLY unqualified to be the President of the United States but that didn't stop millions of idiots from voting for him TWICE.

As far as qualifications go Palin's got more than Obama by a long shot.

What, a bad undergrad degree over many years, and half a term as a governor?

Yeah...you just keep believing.

Palin spent years in leadership positions...and did a good job at it. Obama NEVER had a leadership position and when he finally got one, he's done a lousy job. Heck, the mayor of the small town I live in is more qualified to be President than Obama.

Thanks for the video...but it doesn't mention anything about being able to see Russia from her house. Do you want to try again? Or do you just want to admit right now that you are spreading lies about her?

That's laughable given she had to quit on the job of leading the small state of Alaska while Obama has been able to lead a country for six years to date.

1. Palin didn't have to quit her job...she chose to. It's too bad Obama won't choose to quit HIS job. We'd all be better off if he did.

2. As I said...Obama is a good campaigner. That's the only reason he's managed to keep his job. And...you are really stretching to contend that Obama has led our country...unless you mean forcing people to do what they don't want to do and doing things even when they don't like it is leading.

Talk about the company people keep as a reflection on them. You get it, I know....but you like to avoid the uncomfortable fact that there's trash in the WH.

False. O took out the trash in 2009. Now it's sitting somewhere in TX.

Run Sarah run!!!! :lamo

Run Sarah!!! The GOP desperately needs you. If she jumped into the race, she would add instant credibility to what is currently being offered by the GOP.

I would even campaign for her in California to help her secure the nomination!

Looks like the Donald is think of throwing his toupee in the ring...

It's a circus!

A Palin/Trump or Palin/Romney ticket would be AWESOME!

 

[whysoserious]

Talk about the company people keep as a reflection on them. You get it, I know....but you like to avoid the uncomfortable fact that there's trash in the WH. I don't like the poster she's holding, but when I look at character I'm not seeing where what we've had is any better than hers.

Someone is bitter...

Again, this is irrelevant and debatable. Obama's still is clearly and objectively more qualified to be President than Palin.

Thanks for the video...but it doesn't mention anything about being able to see Russia from her house. Do you want to try again? Or do you just want to admit right now that you are spreading lies about her?

The video had her say in her own words she can see Russia from Alaska. Why are you trying to be dishonest?

1. Palin didn't have to quit her job...she chose to. It's too bad Obama won't choose to quit HIS job. We'd all be better off if he did.

Irrelevant and debatable. Palin quit on the job, Obama hasn't. This is a clear indicator that Palin is quitter and nowhere near as committed as Obama.

2. As I said...Obama is a good campaigner. That's the only reason he's managed to keep his job. And...you are really stretching to contend that Obama has led our country...unless you mean forcing people to do what they don't want to do and doing things even when they don't like it is leading.

Can you quit trying to bring up this rather irrational hatred for Obama? Palin's resume is meek and wildly unimpressive compared to Obama's and that's just a matter of fact.

 

[solletica]

Sarah Palin is clearly unqualified to be the President of the United States. Her views only cater to the Religious Right while the entire world laughs at her and her antics. The only thing Sarah would bring to the 2016 election is constant derailment from actual issues worth discussing by laughing at the next wacky thing Sarah did or say. Either way I don't see the appeal that some members in the Right see in her, nor do I see why the rest of the country continues to give her any more attention after proving time and time again she's just one big goober.

Palin is 100% qualified to be the GOP nominee. . .

1) She's White
2) She has an American sounding name
3) She's Christian
4) She knows how to shoot guns
5) She bashes Muslims
6) She bashes undocumented immigrants
7) She bashes gays
8) She opposes the abortion of White babies

And that's it--the above 8 are the sole criteria used by all US conservatives to judge their candidates, and she nails all 8.

 

[disneydude]

Can you imagine a Hilary v. Palin debate? That would be ugly....but it would make for some awesome SNL material.

She would be the PERFECT GOP nominee.

Well, you obviously equate scholarship over real world experience when judging qualifications...but Obama's scholarly accomplishments do not "clearly and objectively" make him more qualified to be a leader than someone who has actually led.

The video had her say in her own words she can see Russia from Alaska. Why are you trying to be dishonest?

Ummm...

I remind you of exactly what you said: "Sarah Palin can see Russia from her house."

I asked you for a quote and you give me something completely different. Who is being dishonest here, eh?

Irrelevant and debatable. Palin quit on the job, Obama hasn't. This is a clear indicator that Palin is quitter and nowhere near as committed as Obama.

Palin has given her reasons for leaving her Governorship. They are noble reasons and they had the best interest of her State as their basis. That shows much more commitment she has than Obama who SHOULD leave his job for the betterment of his nation...but doesn't have the courage to do so.

Can you quit trying to bring up this rather irrational hatred for Obama? Palin's resume is meek and wildly unimpressive compared to Obama's and that's just a matter of fact.

I've shown no "hatred"...irrational or otherwise...for Obama. I've only shown that he has less real-world qualifications to be President than she does...less, in fact, than the Mayor of my home town does.

Heck, Obama doesn't have the qualifications to lead a mom-and-pop business, let alone lead a country.

 

[CMPancake]

Well, you obviously equate scholarship over real world experience when judging qualifications...but Obama's scholarly accomplishments do not "clearly and objectively" make him more qualified to be a leader than someone who has actually led.

Obama was a Senator, how is that not a position of leadership is beyond me.

Ummm...

I remind you of exactly what you said: "Sarah Palin can see Russia from her house."

I asked you for a quote and you give me something completely different. Who is being dishonest here, eh?

Congratulations, Sarah Palin didn't exactly say "I can see Russia from my House." I will concede that you are right in that regard. However if this is the only thing you have going for you. Your arguments are weak.

Palin has given her reasons for leaving her Governorship. They are noble reasons and they had the best interest of her State as their basis. That shows much more commitment than Obama who SHOULD leave his job for the betterment of his nation...but doesn't have the courage to do so.

The sky isn't falling, Obama isn't drone striking your doctor, and he isn't sending us into a deep dark depression. Quit acting like your opinion has any basis in the reality that Sarah Palin is a quitter and incapable of leading a state, let alone a country.

I've shown no "hatred"...irrational or otherwise...for Obama.

I've only shown that he has less real-world qualifications to be President than she does...less, in fact, than the Mayor of my home town does.

Sarah Palin is a joke, you, and Palin haven't shown she could lead a State, let alone a country.

Heck, Obama doesn't have the qualifications to lead a mom-and-pop business, let alone lead a country.

As opposed ot all the mom and pop businesses Sarah Palin has opened in her years, right?

 

[Declan]

Even if she tries, she won't be the RNC nominee.

But she will sell some books, maybe revamp her TV series on TLC (Which really was surprisingly interesting to me--I liked it), have people blow a gasket over her tweets, and get in some more bar fights for 4 more years by being "seriously interested".

Trump actually said that? What a tool.

I like em' both... one more than the other, obviously.

being a Marine....a scout sniper.....born in the south.... seen with Palin...decorated for actions in an evil Bush invasion/unnecessary war of choice/ war crime... holding a sign that isn't very nice to MM?

oy vey... the lefty hate will be strong

I for one don't know or particularly care who Dakota Meyer is.

 

[Kobie]

sigh...

I'm sorry to tell you this, but as long as Obama is in Office and as long as there are Obama-apologists around...no...there will be no standards.

:roll:

 

[Kobie]

Obama's favorite preacher said God Damn America. At least Palin has some ****ing loyalty. Without basic loyalty, his Harvard degrees don't mean squat.

You're really grasping at straws here, dude.

 

[Mycroft]

Obama was a Senator, how is that not a position of leadership is beyond me.

LOL!!

Yeah...exactly what does a junior, no-time-in-grade Senator lead?

Congratulations, Sarah Palin didn't exactly say "I can see Russia from my House." I will concede that you are right in that regard. However if this is the only thing you have going for you. Your arguments are weak.

Thank you for your concession. It shows you can admit to being wrong.

The sky isn't falling, Obama isn't drone striking your doctor, and he isn't sending us into a deep dark depression. Quit acting like your opinion has any basis in the reality that Sarah Palin is a quitter and incapable of leading a state, let alone a country.

Actually, Palin did a MUCH better job leading her State than Obama has leading our country.

btw, your strawmen are a predictable tactic...but they are also a fail. If I wish to contend that Obama is sending us into a deep, dark depression I'll say so. Then you can dispute me.

(I really do hate it when people try to put words in my mouth)

Sarah Palin is a joke, you, and Palin haven't shown she could lead a State, let alone a country.

Actually, she did a very good job as Governor of her State...something Obama is unable to say about himself.

LOL!!

It's funny you should mention this. Palin has, in fact, been part of small businesses. Her husband's fishery and a carwash. Not much, for sure, but much more than you can say about Obama.
