Sarah Palin sat down with Charlie Gibson for her first interview as the Republican vice presidential candidate. When asked about the Bush Doctrine, Palin responded by asking, "In what respect?" Gibson then asked, "Well, what do you interpret it to be?"

Dodging the question she answered, "I believe that what President Bush has attempted to do is rid this world of Islamic extremism, terrorists who are hell-bent in destroying our nation. There have been blunders along the way, though. There have been mistakes made, and with new leadership, and that's the beauty of American elections, of course, and democracy, is with new leadership comes opportunity to do things better."

    • Hey All,
      So the editor's at current.com try to catch the duplicates as they come to the site, to steer all the conversation to the first post.
      But sometimes we miss a few.
      Please join the conversation on the item linked above, which is currently at #3 on the US homepage!
      Thanks so much for participating.
      Best,
      Tori

      this is not the same at all, the post you are referring to says "Palin doesn't know bush doctrine", which sets a tone to the post. Ikeula's say "Palin Interviewed!"

      The reply's on this site would be an overall reply to her interview, not somebody's opinion that she doesn't know about bush doctrine.

      seems different to me and should be open because the discussions here can cover much, much more than a single opinion

    • McCain/Palin are going to win, at least I wouldn't be surprised.

      Our debates need to be open to all who qualify not just republicans and democrats. If that was so then we wouldn't have to worry about random VPs from Alaska or inexperienced blah, blah, blah. What we need is libertarian democrats, libertarians republicans, and straight libertarians, what I mean is people who know and have the balls to uphold the constitution. Imagine if Ron Paul, John McCain, Barack Obama were in a fair, equal timed debate that lasted for days and stretched over all of the issues, (because that is what we deserve and what we should demand of all of our debates) I think what would happen is we would have a president that people want to vote for, not a vote for a lessor of two evils.

      I know this post is about Palin but it's all the same to me - McBama when it comes to the fact that they will not change the system.

      I am not voting for a lesser of two evils. How many times do I have to say it? Do you think im lying or that I dont get it? John McCain or Barack Obama will be the next president. THAT IS A FACT. To you they are the same but to millions they are very different. This is way bigger than your personal belief on who the perfect candidate will be. Lobbyists own John McCain. They run his campaign and you can guarantee they will be cashing in if he wins in November. For you to think im wasting my time to point out the blatant inexperience of Governor Palin is ridiculous. Sit back with your arms folded on November 4th because Ron Paul inst one of the candidates. Thats your right. But to come in here trying to deflect attention from the absurdity that is Sarah Palin is just plain wrong.

      "McCain/Palin are going to win, at least I wouldn't be surprised."
      Maybe its what you want deep down inside.
      Your doing nothing but taking the attention away from any criticism of McCain.
      I swear you can talk to somebody for hours and still they never hear a word you say.
      Now maybe if you vote for Obama to you its a lesser of two evils but that is not the case with me or millions of other supporters of Obama.

      The system we have today allows a President to be elected by as little as 32% of the American people, Therefore, as little as 16% actually vote for a president. A recent poll shows that 60% of the American people are not happy with the two major candidates this year.

      it looks like the millions that you refer to are not putting all the chips in on Obama, just more chips than McCain -

      and if YOU think Obama is the answer for you and are voting for him then great, that's how it should be. I just want to see that 60% number come down and you should too. You should also want and demand that this whole running for the most powerful person in the world thing is done fairly and democratically. It is neither in it's current state.

      I don't know how you can argue with that, also how am I wanting McCain/Palin to win, I'm giving them no credibility at all.
