On Election Day, as Americans consider whether to place Sarah Palin first in line to become President of the United States in the event that the elderly John McCain dies, they ought to consider the advice of Jeannette Lacey:
“We are the constituents who know what her actions have been, what her behavior has been … and we cannot tolerate that for the vice president of the United States.”
Lacey was the organizer of a protest by hundreds of residents of Juneau, Alaska. The protest was against Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States.
Sarah Palin had just been determined to have broken the law in her unethical abuse of power as Governor of Alaska, but the message of the demonstration was more general. Alaskans know that Sarah Palin is no reformer. She’s a corrupt, power-obsessed and vindictive politician who has put her own personal interests ahead of the interests of her constituents, over and over again.
America, we need to listen to the advice of these Alaskans. Sarah Palin has been a bad Governor for Alaska, and she would be a terrible choice for the White House in 2008.
