i'd rather have someone who has a valid but disputable interpretation, vs. someone who has no fucking clue at all. complete and her bit about using the office of VP to do good things for alaska further shows that she isn't ready for the national stage. personally, i don't find that amusing.
i thought the repubs were dead-set against learning on the job... oh, wait, that only applies to the other side. [/b]
you're so funny. . .
biden first- for someone who has claimed that he is an expert on the constitution and smarter than most people, i do find it funny that he is more often than not wrong on a number of things, the role and duties of the vp being one of them.
palin- i'm simply pointing out the discrepancy between criticising republicans for being obstinate, versus admitting when someone doesn't know something.
from the lack of consensus here on the board, it seems like a lot of people don't know what is the role of the vp.
sonick. . .while i did go to a private college, it certainly wasn't no fancy pants college. . .it was in texas, seersucker is about the fanciest pants you'll find. i was actually really conservative before going there, but being around religious conservatives, i realized that a lot of them couldn't think themselves out a paper bag. . .so, i moved towards the libertarians, who i also don't fully agree with, but the dems hold nothing of interest for me. so, here i am. . .stuck.
