Letter to JWR in re Sarah Palin's speech at the RNC

Governor Palin has good instincts about national security and the need for greater energy independence, but the question still nags at me: Is she qualified to be vice president -- and possibly president -- of the United States? Barack Obama has not reassured me that he understands the role Israel plays as the only reliably pro-Western country in the Middle East, nor does he seem to understand what Israel means for Jewish survival. (In all fairness, I don't have the same apprehensions about Senator Biden.) Given Senator Obama's lukewarm support for Israel and his own relative inexperience, I can't see pulling the lever for the Democratic ticket. Yet at this point, I don't feel comfortable supporting the McCain-Palin ticket either. Despite her wonderful delivery at the RNC, Sarah Palin is a rookie. Moreover, a Time magazine article alleges that she sought to have books banned from the Wasilla, Alaska, public library. You may think that support for Israel should outweigh freedom of speech, but it's just such unintelligent intervention in cultural affairs that makes me think that Governor Palin would do exactly what the Republican party sees as a cardinal Democratic sin: Meddle in our personal lives. Worse: Meddle in affairs she doesn't understand. It's the morning after the RNC and I plan on doing something I've never done before: Sit this election out. —Barbara Finkelstein 1 year, 2 months ago
