Sarah Palin is interested in running for President in 2016

ABC also asked Palin about the fact Mitt Romney, who was the GOP's presidential nominee in 2012, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) have also expressed interest in running. Palin said she hoped to see "new energy" to take on Hillary Clinton, who is widely seen as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.

"That competition in the GOP ... will surface that candidate who can take on Hillary, be ready for Hillary and show the nation what it is going to take to get the country back on the right track," Palin said. "Because we can't afford status quo, because status quo lately has been Latin for, 'We are getting screwed,' and status quo has got to go."

Sarah Palin Is 'Interested' In Running For President In 2016

Sarah Palin, the former governor of Alaska and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, indicated she might run for president in a conversation with an ABC News reporter at a soup kitchen on Thursday.


"Yeah, I mean, of course, when you have a servant’s heart, when you know that there is opportunity to do all you can to put yourself forward in the name of offering service, anybody would be interested," Palin said.
According to ABC, Palin was "serving wild boar chili to the homeless" at the Salvation Army in Las Vegas when she discussed her presidential ambitions. She was in the city for the annual Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show.
When she was pressed on whether she would "possibly" launch a campaign, Palin expressed a desire to see a female president.
"We definitely had enough of seeing that — America has had enough of seeing that — sign on the Oval Office door saying, 'No Girls Allowed.' I know that," Palin said, later adding, "It doesn’t necessarily have to be me, though, but no, America is definitely ready for real change."
Palin went on to note she would be "happy to drive that competition."
"Competition will make everyone better and produce more and be more candid regarding their solutions they will offer this country. I am very interested in that competitive process and, again, not necessarily me," said Palin.
ABC also asked Palin about the fact Mitt Romney, who was the GOP's presidential nominee in 2012, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) have also expressed interest in running. Palin said she hoped to see "new energy" to take on Hillary Clinton, who is widely seen as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.
"That competition in the GOP ... will surface that candidate who can take on Hillary, be ready for Hillary and show the nation what it is going to take to get the country back on the right track," Palin said. "Because we can't afford status quo, because status quo lately has been Latin for, 'We are getting screwed,' and status quo has got to go."
Palin is scheduled to attend the Iowa Freedom Summit. The annual conservative event in the influential early primary state is hosted by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa). In addition to Palin, the summit is set to feature appearances from other potential GOP candidates; New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, erstwhile Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, and the neurosurgeon and conservative activist Ben Carson.

According to the guidelines, you can post about 4 paragraphs from the original source or 1/4th of it, but not the ENTIRE piece:
"Respect others' copyrights, intellectual property and contracts, per legal standards. Limit fair-use posting of copyright material to the lesser of four paragraphs or a quarter of the writing."

Now, had this piece been on the possibility of someone, say like Adam Kokesh, going to jail, Matt Collins would have probably posted more of the story like the guidelines say can be done:

BUT, we should encourage Sarah to run. She is a true patriot, and one of us. I can already hear her ringing endorsement of Rand, and her national bus book tour with Kelley Paul promoting freedom and liberty for all. 2016 would be locked!
 
How about Tina Fey instead? Looks the same, sounds the same, has twice or thrice as much in the way of brains, hasn't seen Russia, and if she lets her close relations stand on dogs she has sense enough to keep it a secret.
 
Not a fan, but if we're honest with ourselves Palin is not nearly as bad as the rest of the scumbags. She seems to me more like a Bentivolio "I'm just happy to be here" type than a Graham "I need to be here to kill foreigners and enslave Americans" type.

If Ron Paul is a 10 and Graham/McFake are a 1, then most Dems are 2's, most Reps are 3's, Palin is a 4-5 or a maybe even 6 (on a good day), and Rand is an 8. In my book. Seven is about as low as I'm willing to stoop anymore. So it's not an endorsement, just an attempt to be realistic. I think she'd be marginally better in the House than Bentivolio. Most of you know my opinion on Bentivolio so don't go making presumptions. :D

Did someone hijack your account?

That spiel about Russia was just that; a Tina Fey spiel. That isn't what Palin said.

Regarding the dog; it didn't seem too upset about it. If he minded a whole lot, I'm sure he got up and moved after the kid got off. I don't see the Palins as animal abusers.

Still don't want her to run for President. Way too easily led.

She should just run for Senate or House. She easily would be a top 5 senator or a good rep
 
Palin isn't interested in anything other than selling book and driving donations.
