Sarah Palin could be joining Donald Trump’s presidential ticket in a dream celebrity pairing for the Republican Party. The gaffe-prone former Alaska governor has heaped praise on Trump in recent interviews, adding that he is doing a great job of ‘shaking it up the way it should be’. Now, it appears Palin, 51, could be entering another presidential race, returning to the same role she had in 2008 alongside John McCain – but this time as Trump’s running mate. Scroll down for video Sarah Palin was asking Trump how he deals with media bias when she congratulated him for 'schooling' anchor Jorge Ramos, branding him a 'dangerous activist' for shouting questions at Trump Speaking to Extra TV, Palin said: ‘He is just getting crucified out there just for telling the truth. He’s doing a good job of that.’ She added: ‘He’s leading other candidates and having to talk about the issues that average Joe Six-Pack American wants to hear and wants to talk about.’ The Donald sparked rumors last month by saying he would ‘love’ to have Palin as a running mate. ‘She really is somebody who knows what's happening and she's a special person.’ And Palin fueled speculation further by deflecting questions on whether she would like to join the Trump ticket. Trump also spoke about a tax crackdown on hedge fund managers and pledged to simplify the tax code for the middle class, who he said are being 'treated horribly' ‘Well, there are so many good potential female running mates out there, and male running mates,’ she said. Republican Party strategist Rick Wilson described the Trump and Palin's pairing as a 'singularity of celebrity politics'. 'Donald Trump is not a rational political actor and so the things you might expect of a rational political actor are not the sort of thing you should expect of Donald Trump, he told The Telegraph. 'So the truth is that any damn thing is possible with that man.' Palin also leapt to Trump’s defence recently, when she hit out at Univision anchor Jorge Ramos during an interview, branding him a 'dangerous activist'. Speaking about Ramos being ejected from a press conference for shouting questions about immigration, Palin told Trump: 'You sure schooled that radical activist. He's not doing that again.' Palin made her remarks while asking Trump about the unfair treatment she claimed conservatives receive from the media, asking him whether he felt he was treated badly over the incident. Trump reminded Palin that he is currently suing Univision for $500million after cancelling his Miss Teen USA pageant following his remarks on Mexicans when he launched his campaign. He added: 'The press was actually quite good to me on that one, he was screaming and ranting and raving. I actually didn't know who he was at first. 'I would gladly have answered his question but he spoke out of turn. He was hurting the rest because the room was packed and they were waiting for questions.' During another bizarre exchange, Palin asked Trump how he became 'strong' enough to deal with harsh questions - including when he was asked about his favorite Bible passage. He replied: 'I love the Bible, I'm a Presbyterian. They were hitting me with questions one after another and then they said “what's your favorite verse?” Among the other topics up for discussion were the Bible, which Trump said he loves more than his own book, and veterans, who Trump again pledged to protect 'That's a very personal thing, I don't like giving that out to people I hardly know. There are certain things that you and myself and a lot of other people like to keep personal. 'But I love the Bible. Somebody once held up The Art Of The Deal and I said "that's my second favorite book".' The former running-mate to John McCain was quizzing GOP frontrunner Trump as part of a segment on One America News this evening. As well as reiterating his pledges to properly support American veterans, Trump also spoke about plans to decrease taxes for the middle class. The business mogul, who has previously boasted of his wealth, said that he would back a crackdown on hedge fund managers, who he says make huge profits 'but are hardly paying any tax'. He added: 'We have a complex tax code that nobody understands. People have to spend tremendous amounts of money for accountants and lawyers. 'I'm in favour of simplifying the code and getting rid of reductions. You have to simplify the code. 'We have to help the middle class, the country was built on the middle class. They have so much to do with what we have now and they are being treated horribly.' Sarah Palin's (pictured with former running mate John McCain) campaign in 2008 was filled with gaffes Sarah Palin's vice-presidential campaign in 2008 was riddled with highly embarrassing blunders - mainly for her running mate John McCain. She notoriously failed to name a single newspaper or magazine that she reads in an interview ith Katie Couric. Palin said: 'I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media.' But when Couric pressed for specific publications, Palin flubbed: 'Um, all of 'em, any of 'em that, um, have, have been in front of me over all these years.' In another notable faux pas, she floundered through questions on the price of oil and the economy in Thanksgiving interview - in front of a man chopping off turkey heads. Geography is definitely not Palin's strong suit. In October 2008, she told supporters at a fundraising event in San Francisco: 'They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan.' Palin waded into the controversy over a mosque planned near Ground Zero in New York in 2010. She took to Twitter to say: 'Ground Zero Mosque supporters: doesn't it stab you in the heart, as it does ours throughout the heartland? Peaceful Muslims, pls refudiate.' The tweet was later deleted, likely when she realized 'refudiate' is not a word. In a radio interview in November 2010, Sarah Palin was asked how the United States should respond to the escalating tension between North and South Korea. She replied: 'Obviously, we've got to stand with our North Korean allies.'

#17. To: TooConservative (#13)
Obama hinted at it in October 2010 when he said "attitudes evolve, including mine" ... though he still didn't endorse same-sex marriage. But in 2012, Obama could have simply said, "I have no idea what Biden's talking about" -- unless, of course, Obama had been thinking the same thing.
Biden proposed three semi-autonomous regions within Iraq with a central government in Baghdad. Obama's inaction is allowing that to happen. Continued inaction may result in three separate nations.
No way. That is simply put.
OK, if you believe that floating a trial balloon for you boss is taking the lead. потому что Бог хочет это тот путь
Biden stuck his head outside the door, nobody shot it off, so Obama then stepped outside. What the Democrats call "leadership".
1) Author: Khaleda Rahman Author is a Muslim radical writing for the Daily Mail -- a liberal-left rag -- DISQUALIFIED 2) (THE QUEEN OF BLUNDERS: SARAH PALIN'S BIGGEST GAFFES) The well-documented gaffs of Hitlery, ZERO, and Uncle Joe Biden are LEGEND and EPIC. But for now, let's address THIS particular lame hit. Sarah Palin's so-called "gaffs" were either petty BS, GOTCHA! questions, or over-exaggerated desperation in marginalizing a conservative who is TRUSTED. Seven years later, Palin STILL lives in the heads of the Left AND the reptilian GOPe, as well as their media surrogates. 3) "Rumors swill (HA! "Swill"?? The author is guzzling fermented camel urine again) that Sarah Palin is in the frame - despite 2008 disaster" Let the wishful thinking and lies of Leftist "reporting" be corrected; FACT: The 2008 (Vice) Presidential campaign was a stunning victory for Palin personally as well as for the conservative demo. If not for a John GOPe McCain who purposely sandbagged and pulled the plug campaign as soon as polls in Sept revealed he was actually shockingly LEADING 0buma slightly, HE and NOT 0buma would have won the election -- spearheaded by the one and only reason for his unlikely surge: SARAH PALIN In Palin, as well as in Trump, the delusional Left -- as well as the Establishment Vichy Republicans -- are fearful of fear-less popular conservative, un-PC warriors. Like Trump and Palin. A piece like this from the Daily Mail is like a weather vane. The worse-case scenario for the Uni-Party: The People will demonstrate a will, conviction, and monumental turn-out to REJECT the status quo of voting....FOR POLITICIANS.
Yes, Bucky actually believes Veeps set policy AND that Sarah Palin would because an Israeli satellite state. *eyeball roll* The degree of effective brainwashing of our own citizenry, and political myopia makes ANY chance our Republic is once again governed by the sane extremely low.
Ah, a form of leading from behind. The DRats are great at that. потому что Бог хочет это тот путь
Very interesting question. It'd ONLY be an interesting question if: Instead of sh*tting ones Depends over Palin sporting a tiny reminder of solidarity with a nation battling surrounding Muzzie-Barbarianism, the question were about US government officials making American soldiers drape their uniforms in their own blood.... ...OR the "interesting" question as to why American military have been ordered to bleed, sacrifice and die because of dopey RoE WHILE ordered to defend Muzzies from *other* Muzzies; THIS WHILE stealing trillions of US Taxpayers money in assets, equipment, and cash and handed it over US defense contractors, Iraq, Afghanistan, ISIS, and other Muzzie terrorist groups since 2003. So Buck -- where's your "interesting question" as to why 0buma and YOUR gubmint have now promised the blood-thirsty Iran millions to inspect their own nuke plants? Meanwhile you and some other Lost-in-Space cadets are fascinated by a question of loyalty with respect to Palin's Israel-US pin? Funny. REAL funny.
According to Palin during an interview when she was still the Governor of Alaska and was asked why she had the flag of Israel flying in her office along with the US and the Alaska flags,she said she flew it to show her support of/solidarity with Israel. It's the "Born again" in her. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
They did the same thing to Romney. Who doesn't despise Romney? Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Have you been Robinson Crusoe since the year 2000? Have you ANY clue what 0buma, Bush, and the US State Dept have been up to since 9/11? Naaah.
Yeah...and your point?
They did the same thing to Romney. Except the gloves were taken off during Presidential patsy Romney's fake campaign. What's their excuse for launching their ICBM at Palin....NOW? It makes them look....scared. AND petty. That's a good sign.
Yes, Bucky actually believes Veeps set policy AND that Sarah Palin would because an Israeli satellite state. *eyeball roll* Are the two of you so slow that you don't understand that VP's have a history of running for president,or that VP's from successful administrations even win elections? That's how that evil bastard Poppy Bush got into office. He rode Reagan's coattails. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
That her first loyalty is to Israel,just like every other Born Again loon. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
You mean her campaigning that energized and brought millions of people to the polls and ALMOST shoved a reticent GOPe patsy like McCain over the top...was something YOU could have done? You're clueless sometimes, bordering on monumental stupidity. Palin almost single-handedly won a Presidential campaign...AS A VP. Btw -- tell us all about your Mayoral career; Governorship, and your vice-Presidency. I'm ALL ears, Yoda.
Sometime on the Amps of Cluelessness & Idiocy, your dials hit a -100. Congrats.
You can't be serious. The entire Presidency of 0dinga has been scripted like a Broadway play. OR, rather like a war. To believe ANY decision the Leftist-Muz-Symp puppet has made was influenced by Biden (never mind "forced") is just comical. Biden's special brand of lunacy and cluelessness has NEVER had any legit input as a part of ANY the 'Destroy America Game Plan.' Uncle Joe himself has been a mere prop, a puppet, himself. ZERO had ALWAYS supported homofacsism, subversiveness, and anarchy across the board. In other words, ANYTHING that destroys America's institutions, culture, and identity.
Yeah...and...so (again.) Oh, but wait -- according to YOU, Palin would turn the US into Israel's vassal-state, and create an EO that enforces all Americans to wear a Yarmulke. Gotta give you credit. When you hijack the Crazy-Train, the cliff is never far away.
Summer, 2008: John McCain secures the nomination, but polls behind Barack Obama. Strategist Steve Schmidt suggests a game changer: picking a conservative female with media savvy, unknown Alaska governor Sarah Palin, as vice president. She's an immediate hit and a quick study - the gap closes. Then, Tina Fey's impersonation, a raft of criticism, and missing her family send Palin into a near-catatonic state: she doesn't prepare for her Katie Couric interview and bombs. Schmidt searches for an answer: don't expect her to learn the issues, but give her a script. Palin does well in the debate with Biden; she finds her voice, goes off script, and goes rogue. ****** BTW - the relevant players who are portrayed in this well documented account of the 2008 campaign have said that the facts portrayed in this movie were accurate. Palin was a train wreck. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Better choice than Oprah I suppose. It would get him the votes from the clueless rubes who still think Palin is a political genius. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much That's true. Point taken. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't
Sometime on the Amps of Cluelessness & Idiocy, your dials hit a -100. Congrats. Are you a Born Again? yes or no? If you are,do you believe that the Jews are God's Chosen People,and that Isreal belongs to them and that makes Israel more important than America? Yes,or no? Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Kinda got you in a panic,don't I? I must have hit a sensitive spot. Gotta give you credit. When you hijack the Crazy-Train, the cliff is never far away. Which one of us believes in magic and miracles? Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
And EVERY time she "went rogue",McLunatics polls numbers jumped. Which is why Kommie Katie and all the other leftists hated her so much. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Better choice than Oprah I suppose. I'd LOVE to see Trump pick Oprah. Just to watch all the black and knee-jerk white leftists heads explode. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
She's a filthy disgusting pig. She's not qualified to be anything but a filthy rich racist Hollywood libtarded twat. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
Actually, "Kommie Katie" was pretty fair in her Palin interview. The fact that poor little Sarah couldn't name a single newspaper she read was not Katie's fault. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much What has she done but associate herself with a subversive imbecile and commit a series of embarassing gaffs as part of a traveling vaudville routine?
What Liberator said #33. I won't go into the details about how effective a Governor she was since your mind is closed on this . Simply put ,she took on powerful forces in the oil industry ,the Democrats ,and in her own party ,and won.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
"If Donald Trump were to ask me to be his running mate, I would give it serious consideration." (Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse "The Body" Ventura, ) good grief ! "The final key to the way I promote,is bravado. I play to people's fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That's why a little hyperbole never hurts." (Trump 'The Art of the Deal') Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Many people haven't read a newspaper in years. They read the Internet. Most newspapers have their own agendas that people don't want to involve themselves.
She's a filthy disgusting pig. She's not qualified to be anything but a filthy rich racist Hollywood libtarded twat. So what? Pretty much the same argument can be made about Trump. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Are you so retarded you think any of the other candidates running for the White House had the time to read any newspapers? If you are that dimwitted,you need to know that they are too busy learning speeches written for them and discussing strategy to read newspapers. They have staffs that brief them on hot news items. Since Palin was picked to help McLunatic lose,she evidently didn't get the staff and the briefings she should have received. The sad part is Palin had what it took to be somebody serious,but she pissed it away with her slavish devotion to John McLunatic. Who the hell can take any politician seriously that took the abuse she took from McLunatic,and her only response was "Thank you,Master John! May I have another?". Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
(Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse "The Body" Ventura, ) good grief ! Apparently Charlie Sheen no longer thinks Donald Trump is a "shame pile of idiocy." After slamming the GOP front-runner in a very special tweet last month, the former Two and a Half Men star has had a change of heart – and now wants to be the Donald's running mate. To add an extra dose of randomness to the equation, we have Owen Wilson to thank for Sheen's sudden interest in politics. In a new interview with The Daily Beast Wilson declared Trump the Charlie Sheen of politics, saying, "You can't help but get a kick out of [Trump], and I think part of it is we're so used to politicians on both sides sounding like actors at press junkets – it's sort of by rote, and they say all the right things. So here's somebody who's not following that script. It's like when Charlie Sheen was doing that stuff – like, wow! He's answering a question completely honestly, and in an entertaining way." www.people.com/article/ch...nald-trump-vice-president
It would get him the votes from the clueless rubes who still think Palin is a political genius. a) Trump was just funnin' y'all with his "Oprah" comment b) I'm confused as just who the "clueless rubes" *should* be voting for, Deckard. I've ask you before...now will you finally disclose *your* sage* selection?? c) No, it's not that some of us have ever believe there was much "political genius" about Palin'; Just a bunch of common sense and communication skills. Are traits you frown upon?
Yes,or no? God has long spoken on Israel and claimed it as His. I realize that it's easy to *assume* you're playing dumb. As to the second part of your "GOTCHA!" question, no American -- whether Palin or myself has ever claimed OR said that Israel is "more important than America," Magoo. Do you support Radical Islam over Jews? YES OR NO? And aren't you the moron who actually claims that there's "NO difference between Muslims and Christians"? YES, you are. BUSTED. So much for possessing a molecule of sanity.
Yeah. I can't decide whether to laugh my azz off or other parts. Which one of us believes in magic and miracles? That would be YOU -- the one who believes EVERYTHING was created out of....NOTHING. Best "magic" act of all, and you're front row center holding a giant lollipop.
Which is why Kommie Katie and all the other leftists hated her so much. Absolutely TRUE. McStain put a stop to his rising poll numbers when *he* himself went rogue, halted his campaign for NO good reason (as 0buma laughed) and went to DC to help Dubya sort out TARP. Kommie Katie's "GOTCHAs!" were a FAIL after all.
Only after waiting a bit for the joke to kick in...then laugh and say, "Are YOU %$#!@in' me?? In your wildest libtard dreams!"
