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.'

#56. To: sneakypete, Deckard (#42)
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!"
Such eloquence of regard for 0prah is probably mentioned thousands of times, but not within an earshot of ET or TMZ cameras.
And you know this to be true,how? When was the last time God made a personal appearance? 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. A total lie. It is said in fundie circles every day of every week all over the country. You either believe that to be true,or you do not believe the "word of God" is more important than national loyalty. Which is it. And aren't you the moron who actually claims that there's "NO difference between Muslims and Christians"? No,I have not and you can not produce a quote from me where I have made that claim. Like most "true believers" you want to edit truths to make them into lies to further your own personal "truths". I have said there is NO DIFFERENCE IN THE MINDSET OF FUNDIE MUSLIMS AND FUNDIE CHRISTIANS,and that is 100 percent true. The same can be said about the mindset of communist true believers. The ultimate goal of all is to force everyone else to comply with their viewpoints using the force of the law or the point of a bayonet,and to imprison or murder anyone that refuses. So much for possessing a molecule of sanity. I am sane. YOU are the one that is a religious loon. You love your "GOD" so much you are willing to lie to make him stronger. YES, you are. BUSTED. One of us is,anyway. 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 you know it isn't true, how? Oh that's right. You support fags and the Bible doesn't so the Bible must be wrong because fags are more important then right or wrong. I'll leave it at that.
Maintaining your "faith" not only requires you to believe in lies,it also requires you to tell them youself. I make no claim as to knowing what was the source that created the universe. HEY! Maybe I can start a new religion by claiming it was beer? Since you seem to think you know it was God because there is no other explanation, would you care to tell us who created your "God"? 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)
I'm not one of the fools that actually thinks Trump is in it to win the presidency. This is nothing but self-promotion. 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)
HA! "Fair"?? Chyeah -- if the "interview" were conducted by a 10 year old. Kommie Katie's question was obviously SO calculated and SO dumb, SO stunningly dopey, that Palin's reaction of befuddlement was...NATURAL. The fact that poor little Sarah couldn't name a single newspaper she read was not Katie's fault. When was the LAST time ANY politician -- nay, VICE PRESIDENTIAL nominee -- was ever asked such a disrespectful, condescending, "GOTCHA!" question? Oh that's right -- NEVER. Because it was so stunningly dumb. Do YOU read newspapers? 3-2-1....quick, name them. STUMPED?? Uh-oh. Maybe you have NO idea what's going on in the world. "Vice President Deckard -- What magazine have you read in the last 72 hours? STUMPED?? Uh-oh. You're REALLY must be clueless. about this world!
And you know it isn't true, how? A complete and total LACK of ANY PROOF whatsoever over a time period that covers thousands of years. Oh that's right. You support fags and the Bible doesn't so the Bible must be wrong because fags are more important then right or wrong. You really are obsessed with homosexuals. Maybe even more focused on them than you are your alleged God. 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)
Sad. So *you* -- along with your fellow imbeciles -- bought into the Leftist-driven meme of Palin's so-called "gaffs"? THAT is embarrassing. Were you at all familiar with 0buma's or Biden's respective series of never-ending, legendary gaffs, lies, and absurdities during the 2008 campaign? I don't have time to spoon feed you the incidents and examples -- sorry. Sarah Palin, with her incredible set of communication skills and motivation almost pulled off a political upset for the ages. This for a most flawed candidate for President who himself had problem filling the seats of an elementary school. Palin was a proven force to be reckoned with -- DESPITE the leftist media's sabotage and character lynching. AND THEY KNEW IT.
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. But...but...how could such a "vaudevillian" bimbo clean the clocks of the oil czars, the RATS, and Establishment GOPe all by her lonesome? She must have been....lucky. *eyeball roll* Remember how desperate the Dems and GOPe were to discredit Palin when they cited Palin's billing of her flights from her home to the state capital as "scandalous"?
He is messin' with heads of people...and it's a blast to watch.
It's just when I see your name I think faggot. No not that you are one. You are just their apologist. Normal people don't support fags.
Thank you.... Your salient point escapes only those who have an agenda, are disingenuous, are ignorant of reality, OR worship at the altar of WaPo or the NYT and expect others to as well. Many Conservatives realize haven't read newspapers since the end of the 20th century. Literally.
The question was insulting to begin with . She wasn't appointed and elected to so many offices over the years, including the Governor of a state , by being an airhead. I would assume that people in that position don't have the time to sit down a peruse a newspaper. More likely their staff brings them reports of things they need to read. She should've said that 'as Governor of a state ,I'm much too busy the sit down and read a newspaper ' . That's what staffers do ' .
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Missed the mark again by a million miles. I admire your consistency. 0prah has been a liberal-leftist racist who's been promoting the Hate-Whitey war for many years. She even came right out and openly vocally said she's celebrate the day when the oldest generation of whites would die (yeah, I assume YOU'RE on her List.) She has "built" nothing but a media empire and Hate-Machine on the backs of white middle-ages women who'd been oblivious to her scam as a divisive propagandist. Trump on the other hand has literally helped build...America. And now he has been exposing the establishment politicians, exposing and ridiculing the PC that has been killing America, and exposing and ridiculing institutional lies of the political/elite class. Believing 0prah = Trump is just more of the same kind of delusion where you also believe Muslims = Christians. Get help. Seriously.
Regarding your description of Palin: You missed your true mission in life. You should be writing fiction for kindergartners.
Since I am not one myself,why the HELL would I apologize for them? And I don't "support faggots". I support American citizens,some of who are homosexuals. It's a damn shame you can't see and understand that distinction. 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 damn sure wasn't a airhead to take down a sitting and connected governor with no more background than being a small town mayor. She should've said that 'as Governor of a state ,I'm much too busy the sit down and read a newspaper ' . That's what staffers do ' . Well,something similar,anyway. What you wrote would have sounded elitist. Kinda like the Bubbette! "little woman baking cookies" comment. 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)
Of course it was...BY DESIGN. It's the Left's M.O. But this kind of open contempt ain't gonna work with Trump. She wasn't appointed and elected to so many offices over the years, including the Governor of a state , by being an airhead. According to the know-it-all geniuses, airheads and bimbos are elected by accident or coincidence, and their accomplishments are...relegated to the kitchen or bedroom. I would assume that people in that position don't have the time to sit down a peruse a newspaper. More likely their staff brings them reports of things they need to read. She should've said that 'as Governor of a state ,I'm much too busy the sit down and read a newspaper ' . That's what staffers do ' . Yes...that is IF they're reading newspapers to begin with. MAYBE a staffer will mention a specific headline here or there -- USA Today, WaPo or the Times. But even then, as Governor or citizen of Alaska, those rags aren'r filling shelves -- considering how many time zone behind they are of stale propaganda and "news." Katie's question was clearly not serious...and yes, had Palin time to think, she could well have mentioned her schedule restricted her routine to limited to online sources for news, or dependence on "staffers" to check out news-printed headlines and stories. If she had mentioned online sources for news, you can be sure Katie was prepared also to ridicule even that, were it "Free Republics," "World Net Daily," or any other alternative conservative news outlet.
You weren't taught right from wrong would be the answer. Ignorance or stupidity would be another. Regardless your a fag apologist. a·pol·o·gist YÈpälYjYst/ noun a person who offers an argument in defense of something controversial.
HorseHillary! If you put aside the race and stupidity thing and focus entirely on their motivations and political histories,they are virtually identical. The prime difference is Oprah didn't inherit HER wealth. Trump is a life-long denize of NYC and NYC's Dim political machine. Hell,he is a 3rd generation Dim insider in NYC's political machine. Only people truly desperate for a political savior would see Trump in that role. 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)
Admit it. You've coming up empty. And whiffed. Don't fret -- everyone has their blind spot(s). Palin is one of yours. But this is especially embarrassing given your wall of degrees and certificates, and library of books that demonstrate your monumental intellect. If only you joined Dorothy on her visit to the Wizard of Oz; The final piece of the intellectual puzzle would be complete. :-(
You weren't taught right from wrong would be the answer. Yes,I was. Unlike you,apparently,I was taught that ALL American citizens had the same rights and freedoms as every other American citizen,and that was the prime thing that made America great,and the envy of the world. Damn shame you didn't learn that. 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)
Laughably absurd. Look -- you can't refute the truth...Trump actually BUILT buildings. And housing units. 0prah's mission has always been about retribution, revenge, and hate. Now you can insist on your alternative reality, but I can't help that.
No, thank you. One of us with Wizard of Oz thinking is quite enough. I'll let you handle the job.
Damn shame you didn't learn that. But you don't actually believe that. If you did you would complain that Lebron James is not allowed to play on the WNBA. Any man and woman could get married. That isn't discrimination. But your parents didn't raise you right. That is for sure. That is why you became an activist for perverts. Your mommy must have said don't make fun of billy even though he is wearing a dress. Then you said sure mama a boy wearing a dress is just equal rights. You're a pitiful creature. I pity you. I pity you out of love. I hate when people who have good qualities like you do, can get something so wrong as to call evil good. You make a virtue out of being a sicko pervert. You cloak perversion and mental illness in equality. Well it isn't fair that you aren't President. It's not equal. Poor petey.
Have you a crystal ball? Tarot Cards? ESP? Yes, it IS "self-promotion." HINT: That's what politics IS. Only Trump has managed to tap straight into heart of the matter. ONLY as a result of Trump's courage and ignoring the flak from America's leftist propaganda machine have we NOW been able to openly oppose the PC tidal wave of insanity that's been murdering America. ONLY Trump's verbal assault on Political Correctness has America fighting back for our very existence. Who else has EVER mentioned actual deportation, wall building, and removing the anchor-baby loophole of the 14A? If for any reason Trumps fails at being President, he will have accomplished MORE than Congress or any President in the last 25 years. WAKING UP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
YOU are still the one who believes EVERYTHING was created out of....NOTHING. YOU are the one who believes Creation has NO Creator. If that isn't believing in the biggest magic act imaginable, what is?
Who or what created the creator?
YOU are the one who believes Creation has NO Creator. Who or what created the creator? I'm waiting for an answer. Tick, tock, tick tock.
Thank you... I was trying to be kind. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
The Creator...God...always was, has been, and will be. This physical world and its rules and laws do not apply in the Hereafter. That said, Robert, your equation and question ("Who or what created the creator?") is a conundrum and mystery that cannot possibly be answered OR understood by the finite mind of man. How should man be expected to understand an Infinite, Omnipotent God's mind? Look at it from this simple perspective: Can a 2 year old read, let alone understand your books?
LOL...your compassion showed. You're getting soft. ;-)
You were indoctrinated by libtards. We aren't "equal"... we never were. We don't treat people "equally"... we treat people FAIRLY based on what they bring to the table. Anything other is LIBERALISM. Shame you never were raised better... too many faggots in your wood pile. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
I'm still waiting for an answer. Tick, tock, tick tock.
If you did you would complain that Lebron James is not allowed to play on the WNBA. You were dropped on your head a lot when you were a child,weren't you? I can think of no other explanation for "logic" like that. 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 a crystal ball? Tarot Cards? ESP? No,that's why I used the word "think". It must me you and the other Trumpettes that are using crystal balls and Tarot Cards. You desperately want to find a candidate that puts America first and reflects American values and traditions. I get that. That candidate ain't Trump,though. 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)
If that is true,who created God? 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)
If God is supposedly eternal, why can't the vastness of the universe be eternal? Why does it need to be created?
Ahhh,so it's MAGIC! 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)
