Yes, I had a general idea from the things I've been hearing that Palin is a frightening person and your articles further prove that point. However let's say the whole scenario does play out that Palin does become president. Let's say she does try to do some radical things like call for creationism classes and no abortions no matter what the excuse. Does being president really give her the power to enforce these things? Is this not a democratic system that there are multiple branches to go through before a decision is actually made? Or are we lead to believe all that and it's actually a dictatorship and we citizens are too stupid to tell the difference? I'm not entirely convinced that through these elections that it is the end of the world by who we choose. It seems to me that there are ways of avoiding terrible ideas if it comes to that point. I understand one of those ways is by the very election itself in having the citizens choose who we want as president, but then I come back to the point on what does my vote really mean in all this and is it worth my time compared to the other more meaningful things that I could be doing.
Please argue with me if you feel I am wrong. I certainly do not claim to be an expert of these matters by any means.
