I have more executive experience than Palin
I was president of my Homeowners Association for 5 years. I have more executive experience than Sarah. I was allowed to sign some real big checks and make decisions that affected over 400 people. Of course, I had to have the Board of Directors agree with me. I was not able to take sole responsibility for everything that was done. I had to share responsibility.

I am also from a small town.........leadership is part-time
My town was larger than Wasilla.....
The issues facing small towns are about roads and infrastructure.
The Mayor and town council are part-time. They have real day jobs. They meet 2x's a month.
Small town America is not stupid about her experience.

1. You're right. A whole lot of people have more experience than she does.
And they're not impressed.

3. So do I
PTA plus President of a state-wide organization for education, plus President of an Education Association active in College and Adult Ed in charge of nearly one million dollars.

But sadly, not a Neo-Con, nor a religious wacko - guess my future is limited these days.

When I viewed pics of her her in meetings as a Mayor, I reflected on my meetings as head of various talented boards with major decisions and realized that I, too could be VP, or even Pres.!

I have glasses, but not an updo, so I am destined to wallow in oblivion.

She is such a joke -- let us hope the voting populace gets it.

5. And I have more foreign policy knowledge than this tart.
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 09:19 PM by Arrowhead2k1
And I've been to more countries than I can count including Lebanon, Syria, Israel and Jordan!

Waiting now for someone to anoint me as a VP candidate. Any minute now...
