Sarah Palin is a Global Initiator

Sarah Palin is a Global Initiator

Vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin is spotted leaving after day two of the Clinton Global Initiative which concludes at the Sheraton Hotel in NYC on Friday.

Palin did not address the conference, but was thanked by Bill Clinton for attending. The 44-year-old governor has been in New York for several days, and attended a meeting of the U.N. General Assembly.

After a visit to ground zero in lower Manhattan, Palin spoke about remembering 9/11 and took questions from a few reporters, answering questions related to the war on terror, Iraq, and the financial bailout plan that is before Congress.

Read the transcript and watch the video of Palin speaking with reporters.

If Americans are dumb enough to elect old lips McCain and right-wing know-nothing Sarah Lipstick Palin (”thanks, but no thanks”), they sure as hell deserve to suffer the consequences.

loved her interview with katie couric…she couldn’t answer any questions and you could see the wheels frantically turning in her head.

I CAN’T STAND THIS JOKE OF A HO.

representative… i know. i’m having a palin day

What a loser.

She is dumb as dirt.

She is nothing but a big joke, the interview with Katie Couric was painful to watch, she knows nothing about nothing.
I love the youtube video where they compare her with the miss teen having a meltdown.

she is sooooooo stupid, i cant believe this ****, why??

the scary thing she could be president of america one day, please noooooooooot, please not!!!!

Please don’t post about her anymore! She is a hideous role model for American women and doesn’t deserve the space!!!!

God help us all.

Is she losing weight?

Gos help us all @ 09/26/2008 at 11:36 am

I just want to say that watching her interview with Katie was painful.

Has she been tested for retardation yet?

This women is a breath of fresh air. She has handled herself well, despite attempts of “interviewers” to make her look like a novice. While the economy is falling apart she can show prove of her leadership by reminding you people that her state is the only one with a surplus. People who criticize her have little or no concrete evidence to back up their claim. She has a record that speaks loud. It’s one thing to disagree with her idealogically but to make such false and debasing accusations only shows what kind of person you are.

P.S. By the way, she looks great!

Sarah Palin is amazing. McCain/Palin will win the election.

why is this ignorant cow involved in politics? seriously its an embarressment to our country that shes running for VP,my god could the woman even find Iraq on a map? is this the new republican image? that of a stupid person running the….oh **** thats not new at all..hi dubya…

oh her record speaks very loud! she hates other women and wants us all to be barefoot and pregnant at the age of seventeen!

*** her. I didn’t vote for Shrub and I won’t vote for her and McCrazy either. So if this country gets fuked 8 different ways to Sunday because of them I won’t have world obliteration on my conscience. Anyone that thinks Palin is awesome and super neat is a complete moron and should go live in a hole somewhere.

To Ann #21 go *** yourself, and start digging your hole idiot.

Sarah Palin is amazing. McCain/Palin will win the election.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Yup…she is amazing. AMAZINGLY.DIM

This lady is a desgrace, go away please

She shoots wolf puppies for fun.

She should go back to Alaska and work on that foreign policy by looking out her window. At first, I thought she was joking about the Russia deal. Now I just know she’s dumb as ****.

Also, Ann #21, people like you will probably be the cause of the downfall of America as the greatest nation. Punk.

She is just like Katie Couric. Promtoed beyond her capabilites…based on looks and personality. Some attractive and personable women who perform VERY WELL at a certain level get promoted beyond their capabilities based on THOSE LOOKS or PERSONALITY. THEN WHEN THEY START TO FLOUNDER at this higher level of demand, we wonder how they got their. Promote women on capability only.

please JJ don’t promote that woman “global initiator”, really ?

she has no place to be a VP, Mc Cain has insulted american people by choosing her and i believe every women wordwilde.

i am from europe, my mom and grand mother looked up to american women being an example….and now this ?

please JJ her values are from another century !!!!

All liberals are going to cry on Nov 4. lmao.

Blacks4Palin @ 09/26/2008 at 12:21 pm

OMG Sarah is so pretty and she rocks! Thanks JJ 4 posting information about her on your site.

McCain/Palin 08!

isn’t her 15 minutes of fame over yet?

Where is her newborn down-syndrome baby???

Back home in Alaska and not able to bond with his mother?

Or is his real mother Bristol?

Because it is obvious this woman seems to care more about rising in her career than the needs of her family.

Haters! All of a sudden you all know more about government than she does…. please. These interviews by the biased media is done to get gotcha moments and soundbytes for Obama. She has to be careful what she says.

Please, she knows a lot more than Democrats presidential hopeful Obama. He only knows what is written for him. He’s the one you all should be worried about. He can’t even do his job as a senator, how could you all trust him as president. He is the one to worry about. And look at Joe Biden. With all his many years in the Senate - nothing to show for it. He’s been wrong on everything in foreign policy and he was supposed to help Obama’s resume. He didn’t even know who was president during the great depression. Just like Obama can’t remember how many states there are. They aren’t gaffes - Obama and Biden are just ignorant politicians!

Go McCain/Palin!!!!!

Sarah Palin is the best thing to happen to US politics. Love her.

“People who criticize her have little or no concrete evidence to back up their claim.”
______________________________________________________

Right…well to quote your beloved Palin, “I’ll try to find you some, and I’ll bring ‘em to ya.”

She is a disgrace to women and should not be allowed on this site.

Equality is going to move so far backwards if she becomes VP - all of this after all the amount of protesters working so hard for years trying to make sure that women get their rights and then she comes along and it all may change.

Disgusting.

Damm, she is gogeous and I love her style sense, compare her to that space head Pelosi who looks like she had one to many Botex injections, and what I noticed about Sara Palin is that she won’t play that politican game of turning every question into a long monolog that doesn’t not only not answer the question but just ends up talking about the candidate on the other ticket’s flaws. I would love to see America’s face around the world be represented Sara Palin, then Biden’s and especally not Barack Hussein Obama.

Check out the youtube interview with Couric, Plain couldn’t answer one damn question.

A must see. Lord if she is president help us all……..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP12aNzocSc

doode I seriously HATE this lady with passion

Damm, she is gorgeous and I love her style sense, compare her to that space head Pelosi who looks like she had one to many Botex injections and it effected her brain, and what I noticed about Sara Palin is that she won’t play that politican game of turning every question into a long monolog that doesn’t not only not answer the question but just ends up talking about the candidate on the other ticket’s flaws. I would love to see America’s face around the world be represented Sara Palin, then Biden’s and especially not Barack Hussein Obama.

Perhaps you confuse answering questions with nuance. After all, Obama lovers are so accustomed to his monologues that don’t even remotely address the question asked. He goes on and on and on… on some interviews, you can see that halfway through his monologue, he stops thinks about what the question was and then decides it’s not important. And this from a guy who gets softball questions. “How do you feel about being the 1st black presidential nominee?” “How does your family feel about this?” “How is Michelle?” If Sarah Palin had those questions to answer, I’m sure if nuance is what you want , she could give it to you.

Listen to Obama when he answers questions. He always prefaces his answers with ,”And I’ve always been consistent on this,,,,” If you have been consistent, why is there a need to say that. Um , yeah, because your opinions move with the tide of the polls. He’s a politician people. It’s so hilarious to me to hear a senator talk about not injecting presidential politics into passing the bailout plan - um, as a senator, it’s your job. And as the president, wouldn’t you want to be involved in the largest bailout - at the very minimum to make sure your constituents are protected. I guess his Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, trial lawyers, unions - they can take care of themselves. No need for him.

What a hack Obama is? Go McCain/Palin!!!

God bless her,McCain esp America..

Gawd help me if I have to look at this woman for 4 to 8 years. I already and so sick of her!

She is so much more real then all these fake politicians that make a life’s job of staying in politics to better only themselves , I hope hope hope McCain/ Palin win, the thought of Barack H Obama representing America gives me a stomach ache and they thought of him actually controlling the government with a democratic controlled Congress and Senate majorities makes me want to throw up, there will be no checks to stop anything they will do.

MCCAIN/PALIN @ 09/26/2008 at 1:27 pm

SARAH PALIN IS AMAZING!! I LOVE HER. MCCAIN/PALIN ARE GOING TO WIN!! AND TO ALL OF YOU WHO DON’T LIKE HER YOU’RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE SHE IS WAY SMARTER THAN YOU GUY’S WILL EVER BE!

ANN #21 YOU SPEEK THE TRUTH.

why is she a disgrace to women? I’m a woman and I think she’s a great representative. take a look at the women who support mccain and then the ones that support obama - stark difference. i’m happy with the company i keep!

you can keep your democatic ladies (and i use the term loosely) - NOW freaks, nancy pelosi, oprah winfrey, lindsay lohan, pink, madonna, michelle obama, the ‘view’ cats, kathleen sebelius, janet napolitano….

i’ll keep my conservative ladies: sarah palin, laura bush, barbara bush, nancy reagan, margaret thatcher, angie harmon, carly fiorini, meg whitman, and countless working women who understand the value of life!

Thanks, but no thanks for your so-called women who support Obama.

I love all the people that think they know anything. AH the left wing bloggers are up this morning.

Not just smarts, she’s gorgeous to boot! She’s got such a great sense of style. And her husband is hot!

Barf me all the way to Russia, ugh.

JJ, this is a total INSULT to your readers!!! Do you think we are a bunch of ignorant idiots?!?

Where is her baby???

Why isn’t this so-called mother bonding with her newborn special needs child??

Also, she does not know what she is talking about and was very scriptive with her answer in the Couric interview, and when Couric asked her again for Palin own explanation she could only answer with what was fed to her.

Good Grief all the republicans from the internet boards to talk radio are like zombies repeating the same ol’ rhetoric that is fed to them by their masters manipulators of the GOP. Yet they are the reason we are in the mess we are in along with some of the Democrats that need to be kicked out of Congress.

I hope after all of this mess is said and begun that the American people will keep the fire in their hearts and vote out all of these lifetime Congressmen & Senators out of the office and start from scratch to take back our country.

No more dirty republicans & democrats but we sure the hell don’t need another republican president, 8 is enough!!

John McCain has insulted the entire female voter population by putting this uneducated, ignorant, pathetic women with 13th century values up as a VP candidate. He has changed so much in the last couple of weeks that he is now just a desperate person that will do anything to get a few more votes.

His act is utterly irresponsible to the entire country and this alone should sway many voters from voting for him.

Can you believe she’s had 5 kids, great shape, and to those little Obama supporters who critique her, even with a hostile national media she has carried herself especially well , which can not be said for Joe Biden, telling a man in a wheelchair to stand up and speak and lying about his barely surviving the “corridor of death in Afghanistan” when he went to visit, which never happened, or telling a person that Obama’s administration would not build clean coal planets in America but they will in China when according to Obama’s campaign he is for clean American coal planets, or telling CBS. News that President FDR went on T.V in 1929 stock-market crash to talk to American’s, only problem with that is FDR wasn’t President until 4 years later and American’s didn’t have T.V’s in their homes until at least 12 years later, or saying how terrible Obama ads were, or telling a rally that President Bush had sent negotiators to Iran to negotiate with Iran about it’s nuclear ambitions, to lie and say that Bush had moved to Obama position (to talk to evil dictators no matter what they do) when that never happened, or how Biden’s son is a lobbyist for MBNA while Obama rails against them or how Biden had to repeat a year in law school for plagiarizing and 1988 left the Presidial race for plagiarizing a British politicians speeches and how he has been in the pocket of credit card companies for most of his career and how he has hair plug and a face lift . I can go on for days but I think people get the point they expect perfection from republicans while democrats say and do the stupidest things and the media doesn’t make it any deal while they repeat for days anything that would be considered a gaffe or a lie if it involved McCain or Palin

WakeUpPeople @ 09/26/2008 at 2:18 pm

McCain should be asahmed of himself for choosing her. His sloganis Country First, but yet he chooses an incompetent running mate. This shows he is not interested in country first. The sad thing is he has fooled so many Americans!

#55 Connie….You are a blinking idiot if you think Palin is ready!!!

VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN! I was a McCain supporter, but this choice for Palin as VP is ridiculous. Her ideals are archaic. Her religious BS of saying that our military is doing God’s work is outrageous. Sure, she can be anti-abortion and have a down syndrome child. But she has nannies to help her 24/7, I’m sure. Other mothers do not have this kind of money to get help. Women should have a choice. And yes, there were dinosaurs, you crazy moose killer. Can you imagine if McCain chose a man with these qualifications? That’s right, he wouldn’t be stupid and do that. McCain is using sex and youth to build up hype, and it’s just wrong for our nation. If she had qualifications behind her, and reasonable ideals it would be another story. We need ability here.
VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN!

Missy you are quite pathetic, thank god you’re a republican.

WakeUpPeople

And you are an even BIGGER idiot for thinking Obama is ready to be President. He can’t even handle his job as senator. If he learned so much from community organizing - he should get a job at ACORN again.

What has Obama done? He has ZERO accomplishments - a bunch of pretty speeches, but nothing else worthwhile.

She’s pretty like a movie star. She’s young. She’s slender. She’s a mother of 5. She is tough because she hunts. She is religious and brings God into a lot of conversation. She’s cool because she’s a hockey mom. I love her accent. Even though she knew she was going to have a down syndrome baby, she decided to have it. Her family is adorable. Her husband is handsome. She supports her teen daughter’s pregnancy. Her kids have unique names. I like her eyeglass frames. She’s stylish. She and McCain look like they really get along.

Wake up America, above are NOT reasons to vote for McCain/Palin!!!!!

To #53 and others interested in zombie Republicans: Kathleen Parker, a journalist, was a firm supporter of Sarah Palin, but after hearing her interviews said that Palin should withdraw from the race and use her sons’ care as her reason. If you’re interested, the article is in the September 26 Huffington Post.

I watched her interviews and thought that maybe I was not understanding what she said. (Maybe she was speaking in tongues.) Then I read the transcripts and realized that she is completely unintelligible, that she does not speak in sentences or express clear thoughts.

There are quite a few articles about her (religious) involvement with an African minister who is also part of her church. He invoked the putting out of witches when he blessed Palin in her campaign for governor. He’s also made anti-semitic remarks.

Folks, this lady is dangerous. Republicans, independents, women who are enchanted by Palin, re-consider what she stands for. She doesn’t represent today’s values.

Nuff said.

Wake Up Missy - your ignorance is showing. It’s obvious from your comment that you’ve never bothered to read the Congressional Record, or the Illinois state voting records.

Go read the FACTS, then come back and do a comparison for us between Obama and McCain.

I’ve voted for Republican presidents for 30 years - but NOT THIS YEAR. To thrust this extraordinarily unqualified, and in fact STUPID, woman on us tells us what John McCain thinks of the American public, especially American women.

Any woman of any intelligence would be insulted.

I love when she talks, please Sarah Palin keep talking , i mean a lot, more you talk better for the democrats, talk hockey mom from Alaska we love to hear from you

Katie Couric interview with Palin made me pen my eyes and see that this woman is not ready to be a VP.

She has a long, long way to go before getting to that point.

could someone who “adores” this woman, please explain to me what the helll she does with her young children while she’s off doing the POLITICAL STUFF???
How can you be a “good mother” when you don’t see you’re kids that often, including a only 4 month old with disabilaties.
She’s a horrible excuse for a representative of the US, especially as a mother. YUK

Oh god. I just cringe when I listen to her speak. She’s awful. Embarassing.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

is this part of her speed-dating tour of world leaders and events?

at the ripe old age of 72, mccain should have chosen his veep more wisely. choosing palin as his backup is so painfully absurd, irresponsible and utterly void of good judgment. he only met her once before chosing. her. think of it this way, if a parent wasn’t able to take care of their children, would they in good conscience leave them with someone they barely knew? not to mention someone who kills moose, tote guns, is involved in several abuse-of-power scandals in alaska, is a creationst, is against stem-cell research, doesn’t believe global warming is man-made, and believes one can “pray away the gay”….

yes, if they were hellbent on winning an election and has lost sight of everything he once stood for….

after threatening to pull out of the debate, mccain’s back in and guess what? he thinks he won the debate, before it’s even taken place.

She was never a true supporter of Palin, especially if she is basing her decision on interviews. A supporter of Palin goes deeper than that, and can connect to her values and beliefs. There are more from the Democratic party who are changing sides, because they see there is an extreme corruption already brewing in Obama’s advisory circle.

Is 8 years of having an idiot lead our country not enough for all of us? Can you honestly tell me that the country has been a better place since the idiots have voted for another idiot into the presidency based on similar values/morals? Palin is likely to become president if McCain wins since he is not likely to survive his first term due to his age and health history.

Enough is enough - if you are not intelligent enough to recognize that this women does not even remotely have the mental capacity to answer any questions directly using her own views- then you people should stay away from the polls.

Recovering republican @ 09/26/2008 at 2:44 pm

your ignorance is showing. It’s obvious from your comment that you’ve never bothered to read the Congressional Record, or the Illinois state voting records.

########

No. Recovering, YOU need to check the facts about Obama’s record. Almost his entire Illinois state senate record ( a part time job, by the way ) was manufactured to give him a record to run on for the US Senate. During the 7th year of Obama’s lackluster 7 year state career, the Illinois senate majority leader, Emil Jones, took dozens of pieces of legislation away from the Illnois state senators who actually wrote those pieces of legislation and fought for them for many years. Because Jones was able to he gave all that legislation to Obama and Obama got credit for legislation he hadn’t written or worked on. Obama continues to this day to take credit for all that work that others did. Jones also channeled all new and publicity attracting legislation to Obama so he would get the headlines. That’s Obama’s Illnois record. That and troubling connections to the very slum landlords and rip off developers whose vistims Obama claimed to want to help.

His US Senate job? Obama started his campaign for president as soon as he got to Washington. It didn’t take much time after to formally launch his campaign going back on his promise not to run for prez during his 1st term. It was as if he wasn’t interested in being a senator at all. His reluctance to participate in crafting and working to get the compromises vital for an acceptable and wise bailout bill during this financial crisis just highlights his unwillingness to master the real work of governing.His handling of the situation just shows his unease with the real bipartisan work of government. I laughed when he suggested that he could handle is by phone. Only someone with little or no experience on the Hill would fail to grasp how much personal presence and personal lobbying is necessary to move a contentious bill like this through congress. By phone indeed! Gie me a break.

Even more troubling is that during Obama’s all too brief time in the US Senate he authored no significant pieces of legislation. Obama is chairman of the European Subcommittee of the power Foreign Relations Committee. He has held NO committee hearings or meetings. He also did not bother to travel to Europe as he should have. Our NATO & EuropeAN ALLIES are essential relationships & within his subcmte’s jurisdiction. He never even bothered to meet with NATO leadership. In essence, Obama squandered his opportunitiy to become educated about a vital part of the world.

People naively mock Palin for her lack of foreign policy experience, but her job as governor didn’t involve bligate her to interact wit heads of state. Nonetheless she has interacted with the important trade representatives of Alaska’s trading partners - South Korea, Russia, Canada, Taiwan, Iceland among other countries. And how naive can one be to ridicule this woman who has worked her way up to become the Governor of Alaska, a huge and compex state facing issues of vital importance in our world and economy. And she had to do that by standing up to her own party and very powerful Alaskan politicians. During her campaign for governor, Palin and her opponent, Frank Murkowski, former long term senator and then governor, held numerous debates and naturally wasn’t expected to hold her own. She more than held her own and beat him.

No successful professional woman would ever ridicule her and what she has accomplished. I disagree with her on many issues and I can still admire her. What I refuse to do howvever is buy into the distortions of her words and record and of her as a person. She is being demonized just as Hillary was demonized. She is being ridiculed for being a woman just as Hillary was. Her voice, her accent, her glasses, her hair, her mothering skills, her clothes, blah blah blah. None of which the men have to put up with.

The misogyny started with Hillary continues unabated. There’s just a fresh target.

We trust male candidates with being good parents. Why is it only females we have the nerve to suggest are neglectful? Every woman should be ashamed of herself for even going there. By the way, the baby is with her on the campaign trail and she is still nursing him. her other children & husband are also with her.

This campaign has been full of lies and distortions. If you are really interested in a very good interview with Palin without any gotcha attitude, go find Maria Bortoromo’s interview of Palin the week before she was chosen by McCain. Just an objective journalist asking questions to find out about Palin and her ideas. She just joined the ticket and she’ll get up to speed in good time. It isn’t as if she’s had 18 months on the campaign trail with 200 experts briefing her at every turn like Obama has.

Vote for whom you make sure you educate yourselves.

Please explain to me why she is doing all this campaigning . . .she is not running for president, but she and the some outlets of the media act as if she is.
Did anyone know who she was before all this???? NO, that should tell you something.

Sure Sarah Palin is painful to watch but MacCain even with almost 30 years of exp. is even more painful to watch, this old dude sold his soul to the diablo , he is confisud and lost.
GOD BLESS AMERICA !

Gov. Palin is excellent.

ACTIONs speak louder than words.

Gov. Palin gave Alaska a sound economy.
Compare that with Wall Steet CEO’s

Journalists & big media & Obama do not like her because
1. She is more successful managing budgets
2. She is moral
3. She need less money to get more votes.
4. She is feared by terrorists & enemies. (Terrorists respect Obama - how scarry is that to us!)
5. Corrupt politicians & beauracrats have no future if she is around.

McCain-Palin

I believe every thing about her is fake. She is a disgrace.

Carl-

As opposed to Barack Obama who is so geniune. We are supposed to believe he sat in church with the hateful Reverend Jeremiah Wright and he never heard him spew the evil hate.

As opposed to Joe Biden and his hairplugs and his phony stories about dodging bullets in Iraq. Ooops. that was Hilary Clinton. Joe Biden dodged bullets in Afghanistan.

As opposed to Michelle Obama who has reaped the rewards of America’s opportunities and she is finally for the first time in her adult life, proud of her country.

Yes, you do prefer the more genuine candidates, don’t you? Ha, what a crock!

Hey now, she lives in a state where she’s executive of. Well that’s what and how she told Katie Couric. She cannot even speak properly. She is a freaking JOKE.

And this woman had the audacity to criticize Obama’s “lack of experience“, when it is quite obvious that she cant even answer a simple question coherently enough without rambling on about issues she has no merit to discuss.

If Palin ever bacame president of the U.S. it will surely equal WWIII.

My gosh! She knows nothing! Her interview with Katie was a joke. How can we elect this idiot as our vice president?

The New York news media was rough on Palin but the other citizens of New York elect republican mayors and governors. Palin in is the glue that will elect McCain. Myself and many other Clinton supporters are now for McCain.

I am not surprised that most of the comments are negative because most of the people on the gossip sites are ill informed. Sarah Palin is the epitome of the American dream. She is great and very gutsy/ By the way for those who do not know why she kept on referring that Russia is very close to Alaska is that goegraphicallly Russia is just a neighbor and would be more vulnerable for Russian agrression than the rest of USA. Got it, like what happened to Georgia.

why anything about sarah palin. if you are going to show her, put up things about obama, biden, and mccain as well. what everyone think is so special about this woman i have no idea. do not turn this random woman who knows nothing about politics become a celebrity. aughh

Global initiator??????? her??

-____- !!

yeah right…..

There’s special hell for those women who do not support other women. The way some of you are putting her down is a disgrace. Shame on you and grow up.

That woman, Palin, is a pathological liar, she can’t give an interview without sounding like a 3rd grader, and she’s a simpleton.

ALL THE WAY TO VICTORY, OBAMA!
ALL THE WAY TO VICTORY, OBAMA!
ALL THE WAY TO VICTORY, OBAMA!
ALL THE WAY TO VICTORY, OBAMA!
ALL THE WAY TO VICTORY, OBAMA!

Sarah (simpleton) Palin: “I can see Russia from my house”. So thats her foreign policy experience….The Dummie…hahahahahahahahahahah!

The Repubs showed just how little they respect the American people, by trying to put this dumb as nails nitwit in place as Vp of this nation, she would be one heartbeat away from the presidency, and we all know that would be a disaster. She is George Bush in lipstick.

Vote Smart, vote for OBAMA/Biden!

She is just like Katie Couric. Promtoed beyond her capabilites…based on looks and personality. Some attractive and personable women who perform VERY WELL at a certain level get promoted beyond their capabilities based on THOSE LOOKS or PERSONALITY. THEN WHEN THEY START TO FLOUNDER at this higher level of demand, we wonder how they got their. Promote women on capability only.
****************************************
pinkrose, McCain is trying to promote her even further out of her capabilities by trying to make her one faint heartbeat from the presidency, and we know that would be a disaster.

Vote OBAMA 2008!

Obama for President @ 09/27/2008 at 11:07 am

Palin: “I have foreign policy experience, because I can see Russia from my window”. bwahahahaha …..what a joke.

I can see Mexico from my window, so I guess I can be VP? hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
