Palin:Not ready for primetime

I was favorably impressed with Sarah Palin but not as a candidate to become president. Instead I think she might make one of the best CEO's of the Red Cross or something like that or head of the PTA but definitely to provincial to ever be president(at least for now). Likability only takes one so far. Being Miss Congeniality in the Miss Alaska contest or even Governor of Alaska does not make one ready to be president of the United States.

However, to be fair to her if she was say a Senator from Alaska in the United States Senate for about 10 years time, she might then be a good candidate for President. Right now she is just too provincial to be that close to becoming president alongside the oldest presidential candidate ever to run for a first term in the history of the United States. After all, John McCain is 72 and has a statistically 1 in 5 chance of dying in office.
