I'm a little confused.
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're "exotic, different.."
Grow up in Alaska eating moose burgers, a quintessential American story.

No. Chumming around Ayers, Wright, Farrakhan, Dohrn and the like makes you "exotic" and "different".

If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.

No. Donating $800,000 to ACORN, attending Trinity United Church of Christ for 20 years, launching your political career in the living room in the home of Bill Ayers and voting against a bill that would protect children that survived botched abortions would make you a "radical".

Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well grounded.

Graduate from Harvard and espouse liberal ideology and you will become a STAR with Hollywood and Northeast liberal elites as well as the mainstream media. Graduate from community college and that makes you NORMAL like MOST AMERICANS! Of course you are the scorn of the snobs who think they are better than us all.

If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer,
become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor,
spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee,
spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is:
Local weather girl,
4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people,
20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people,
then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive and a heartbeat away from the presidency should a 72 year old man (who has had cancer 4 times) die.

No. All of those things take leadership, he just lacks in EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP experience. Big difference. Big difference between a city councilman, state legislator, law professor and Senator versus someone who is the top executive in their areas of leadership: mayor and governor and you forgot to mention a CEO of a small business. Palin is at least as qualified as Obama if not more because of the EXECUTIVE experience she has. Obama has ZERO EXECUTIVE experience.

If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.

I would say being a member of a so-called Christian church for 20 years that says "G-D D--N America!" or has guest ministers that curse in the pulpit, or espouses racist theology would at least cause folks to question your Christianity. Obama is to be applauded for his marriage and children. Doesn't mean he ought to be President.

If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.

I don't think anyone is saying Mac is prestine example of Christianity. I think it says he is flawed like th rest of us. Besides if you voted for Clinton in 1992 and 1996 and defended him throughout his presidency---WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??????????

If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.

It is responsible to teach young people that it's okay to have sex ouotside of marriage, just as long as you don't get pregnant? How about teaching self control and discipline and morality and being responsible by encouraging marriage and hard work and family??????

If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.

No. You are responsible when you TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS (i.e. if you gonna have sex, you might get pregnant and you ought to own up and have the baby).

If your wife is a Harvard law graduate who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent America's.

No. Your family's values don't respresent America's not for the good works mentioned above, but for being the MOST LIBERAL SENATOR in the US SENATE. America's history has not embraced the radical agenda of the left.

If your husband is nicknamed "First Dude", no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.

Yes. Because there a re a lot of Americans are just like Todd Palin. There are more non-college educated Americans than there are. He is a member of the United Steelworkers Union, works in a difficult occupation in the oil fields of the North Slope of Alaska, and although he may have once belonged to a radical right wing political group, do you really want to compare him, a man who is running for NOTHING and the roll out the laundry list of the dubious, weird, wacky liberal radical organizationsthat Mr. Obama is affiliated with???? I know you don't want to go there.
