As you were stating that you want the actual facts....I just have to tell you that your facts unfortunately are far from accurate.

Do you really believe that Alaska has a population of just 9000? The actual population in 2006 for Alaska was over 670,000.

Governor Palin did not attend 6 colleges...fact is it was just 4 (just to note, Obama attended 3 different colleges).  If you want the full run-down, let me know.

As for Govenor Palin experience, she has been a small business owner, elected to the City Council of Wasilla, was Mayor of Wasilla, appointed to Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation and then she was elected Govenor.

Obama does not have more experience than this.  And again, Governor Palin is the VP nominee not the Presidential nominee, so she shouldn't be scrutinized as such.  Obama does not have any real experience - he has never Governed anyone.  

It is an insult to Govenor Palin to depict her as unintelligent.  And as we are on a "Working Mother" forum and her Working Mother experience (mother of 5 no less - with one being a special needs child) says a lot to me (not to mention all of the experience I mentioned above).  Look at all of us, trying to juggle the everyday demands of raising a family while working.  She's doing it and doing a great job of it as well.  We all have a lot in common with her and face many of the challenges that she has had to face and she has done it with such grace.

I'm not sure what type of Christianity you are referring to but my Christian background is much different than Obama's background.  I could NEVER have sit through one sermon of Dr. Jeremiah Wright’s,  let alone had him marry me or baptize my children.  It is very peculiar that Obama chose to disassociate himself with Dr. Wright at the time he decided to run for President and only then resigned his membership in his church.  Why all of a sudden was he embarrased of his church? Have you seen Dr. Wright's sermons....wow now that is hatred and it scares me.  My church preaches loving one another and loving our country.

I am sorry you thought I was being judgemental of people with Muslim descent.  That was not my intent.  My intent though is to ensure that in this United States of America that we do not fall short and that we ensure that our country is run by someone who we can put our complete trust in.  Unfortunately the name Barack Hussein Obama is just getting too close to the name Saddam Hussain.  911 hit too close to home for me.  I am all about our safety here in America.  It is something we cannot take lightly for our children and grandchildren's sake. We absolutely would be falling short as a country if we did not investigate ANY terrorist ties any Presidential nominee has admitted to having.  I wouldn't think anyone should have a problem explaining their background if they want to run our country after all we have been through.  It should not be a surprise - it should be expected as this is the Presidential election! 

Thank you for giving me someone to debate with.  I do not always vote Republican.  I have some fairly strong educated opinions on this one however.  I did just change my position on one of our state issues - actually just today!  Oh and for the record, I voted for Hilliary Clinton in the primaries!

Just as you stated, "I'm sure you are going to maintain your position, but I´m just doing my best to get the actual facts out there."

Dear Ms. Barbies:

As you state it is a debate so I´m not being argumentative, but it is an important issue and I just fail to see why people fail to see the truth.

I am sure Ms. Palin is a lovely person, but she is no where near qualified as was Hillary Clinton. I did misspeak, she was Mayor of a town of 9,000, but Governor of all Alaska for a short while, where she completely abused her position for a personal vendetta, among other things. 

You may be right about the exact number of schools Ms. Palin went to, but she´s no Harvard law school graduate.

You must consider the policies of these people.  Senator McCain and Governor Palin are going to freeze every service you depend upon.  They are not going to have family friendly policies.  They are not going to have policies that help you and your family.  That´s not what they believe in, this is just a fact. Did you not hear Senator McCain talk about the "health of a mother," as if it was some joke?

Senator Obama has nothing to do with any terroism and that is simply a smoke screen to get people like you in so much fear you won´t see the truth.

Everyone is scared of terroism, that´s why it is a good tactic.  Please consider the whole world has respect for Senator Obama and that will go a long way in keep America safe. Much further than tactics of fear and intimidation. As you have seen that has done nothing but make us lose the world´s respect, led to a war that killed thousands of soldiers, and crashed the economy. These are the important issues for you and your family.

As for Rev Wright, he is a black preacher expressing the frustrations of Black Americans in this country.  Though his words may be strong for your taste, it must be taken in context of his audience.  He is stating that America must get over it´s racism which is true. 

If you want to argue clergy, Ms. Palin goes to some church that´s waiting for the Rapture and trains children to be demonic witch hunters.. now that´s scary!

That pair is not good for America and unfortunately for you, most of America has figured that out.

I am sorry you thought I was being judgemental of people with Muslim descent.  That was not my intent.  My intent though is to ensure that in this United States of America that we do not fall short and that we ensure that our country is run by someone who we can put our complete trust in.  Unfortunately the name Barack Hussein Obama is just getting too close to the name Saddam Hussain.  911 hit too close to home for me.  I am all about our safety here in America.  It is something we cannot take lightly for our children and grandchildren's sake. We absolutely would be falling short as a country if we did not investigate ANY terrorist ties any Presidential nominee has admitted to having.  I wouldn't think anyone should have a problem explaining their background if they want to run our country after all we have been through.  It should not be a surprise - it should be expected as this is the Presidential election.

Sorry, I have to point this paragraph out because it´s insane!  His name is too close to Saddam Hussein, What????????? That´s just a foreign sounding name you have never heard before, that´s it. Think. That´s like saying someone who names their child Timothy intends to raise a child who will be Timothy McVay, that´s crazy!

Barack Obama has nothing to do with terroism. Stop watching Faux News.  He served on a Republican organized Board of Directors, with a bunch of other Republicans as well who all served on the Board with a radical 60´s guy named Bill Ayers.  The Bill Ayers guy is now some teacher. If Barack is associating with a terroist in this case so is the whole Republican Board of Directors! 

They are apple and oranges: his name sounds foreign so he is a terroist? Then you´re saying he was on the Board of Directors with some guy who was in a Vietnam era protest in the 60´s when Barack Obama was like 8, so he´s hanging with terroist.

If you thought about what you are saying it makes no sense.

I've figured out the ONLY reason why you are voting for Obama.  That is not a good reason to vote for a candidate.  Luckily that is the very reason he will not be elected.

I'm not going to shoot holes through your unfactual response (except to say Pain is STILL a Governor!).   I do not have the time or desire.

PALIN FOR PRESIDENT 2012!!! (Right after McCain's term)

Well that doesn´t even need to be dignified with a response.

My attempts to educated you withl the truth were futile so carry on listening to false information and believing smear campaigns.

You might want to do yourself one favor though. Have your children travel  so they can meet different people and not  develop limited world views.
