Sarah Palin & the Alaskan Independence Party

Why does the old fella's VP support and speak at another party's convention - the Alaskan Independence Party - a party founded in 1978 to promote the Alaskan independence movement!

It makes you question the old fella's judgement .... and she could be just a heart-beat away from the Presidency of the US!

Sarah Palin's ties to Alaskan Independence Party are played down

The McCain campaign denies his running mate supports the party's separatist bent.

By Michael Finnegan, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
September 3, 2008

Tonight, Sarah Palin will be nominated as the Republican Party's choice for vice president of the United States.

But back home, she has cheered the work of a tiny party that long has pushed for a statewide vote on whether Alaska should secede from those same United States. And her husband, Todd, was a member of the party for seven years.

"Keep up the good work," Sarah Palin told members of the Alaskan Independence Party in a videotaped speech to their convention six months ago in Fairbanks. She wished the party luck on what she called its "inspiring convention."

The Alaskan Independence Party, founded in 1978, initially promoted "the Alaskan independence movement." But now, according to its website, "its primary goal is merely a vote on secession."

To me, it looks like a Governor being nice and sending a video to some of the citizens in the state that she is Governor of, and telling them to have a good event.
