This poll is pretty simple and straight forward.

I think she should run. That's my simple and straight forward answer.

I would like to see her run... She definitely means business, and is a lot more sensible than many people in the government today. She is a breath of fresh air (so to speak) compared to even some of the Republicans who have attempted running for President, such as Mitt Romney and John McCain, who both have flip-flopped on some of their stances. They will talk a nice talk, but their actions don't match their words. Actually, another person who I think is planning to run, is Bobby Jindal, the Gov. of Louisiana - he's a good one to watch too, because he's Catholic, and looks quite promising. ;D

Hmm, haven't heard of Bobby Jindal. I'll have to look into him.

I typically don't like Wikipedia, but it does have a good article on him and summarizes what his political stances are quite well. The article is footnoted a lot, and the person's resources look sound, so I think the article is probably credible, in case you're interested.

Yeah, I read that. He seems like a pretty solid choice.

Fair enough. (Here in Minnesota, we just had snow earlier than we have in years and all across America we had several months that were colder than they have been in many years). She has done some work to help the environment, when she was governor of Alaska, and before that. She has actually described herself as part of a "greenie" group, several times in her book Going Rogue. So she cares about the environment actually more than many conservatives do, but isn't as concerned about it as many people would like her to be, such as yourself.

I personally do not believe that she is ready for the role of presidency. I would give reasons why but I have to run pretty soon.

I think Palin would be excellent. People say that she talkes in circles and isn't progressive, but that's because they saw her in the McCain-Palin campaign. McCain's too wishy-washy, and put a gag on her, so she couldn't state her defenses. I think she would be a strong leader, and depending upon whether the majority in the congress/senate is Democrat or Republican, would make good progress. Not to mention be a more honorable representative of our country.
