Sarah Palin Running for President?

While listening to Batesville High School gossip, there was a group of my friends speaking of Sarah Palin's decision to run in the 2012 Presidential Campaign. I have always been interested in politics so I looked further into the discussion and found an article with the title Should Sarah Palin Run for President? Holly Ojalvo, the author of this article, pushed me to believe that Palin does not have the capability and qualifications to become president because of all of the negative facts about Sarah included in her article.

Ojalvo included an interview from another article by Robert Draper with Palin's political advisor to discuss Palin's political moves. Mentioned in this interview were the poll numbers. Palin is obviously not being favored in the political race with only 39% among registered voters seeing her qualified to become president. In Holly's article, is a link to Draper's article with the interview and more in great detail. Draper made a point to add better better on Palin's status but did not succeed in swaying the attention away from negative points about her political qualifications. In Ojalvo's article, she invited young adults to post their opinions on Palin's capability of holding the presidential seat. Most comments regarded Sarah as incapable of being presidents and some added more facts about Palin. From the comments and two articles I read, I have the same opinion as the majority of the young adults that commented on Ojalvo's article. Palin is not qualified to become president.
