Sarah Palin’s Family in the Media

Here’s are a few questions I ask you the reader:
- Should this presidency be determined on whether or not Sarah Palin, mother of 5, just recently had a baby?
- What about if you heard the baby has Down Syndrome? Should it matter if she can be VP?
- What if I told you her 17-year-old daughter got pregnant? She’s also keeping the baby and plans on getting married this year to her fiance.
Many of you are probably thinking she’s a terrible mother. But the truth is she is the average working mother, course she gets paid a lot more than most of us. Right? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a REAL mom in office, even if it were as VP? Yes, she has issues in her own family, we all probably do that we don’t want everyone to find out about. She’s about to deal with many of the issues we all talk about, she’s the average mom. But she’s doing it all on a bigger scale, the thing I’m amazed is how she deals….UNDER PRESSURE. So far she’s dealt with it beautifully, actually most moms would’ve attacked those that were going after her cubs. Am I right?
Honestly I agree with Obama when he stated, “Leave the children alone.” I support that, course you know that won’t happen. Everyone will watch how the children behave before voting. Everyone will wonder, if Sarah can be a “mother” and “work” at the same time. Course I don’t think this should be an issue, she also has a husband and even if she didn’t there are working moms that are single that do exactly that (yes not for the White House) all the time. This race should not be about how many kids she has, whether or not she has one baby with down syndrome or a daughter getting married. It should be plain and simple about politics, the views, how we feel on “if they can get the job done” type thing.
Voice your thoughts and after the speech come back and leave more thoughts. Can’t wait to read them all.

I don’t think anew baby
With down syndrome should take so much time to be in work. Isn’t the whole point of being a mom to nurture your children? If the baby wasn’t a special needs baby and about 3 or 4 yrs old I would say cool. But with the current situation its all wrong
New
As a new mom, I don’t feel the need to judge what other moms are doing as long as their kids are happy, healthy, and given plenty of various opportunities. I think Sarah Palin would be wonderful in office and if anything would fight for women’s/mother’s rights. She said she would be an advocate and friend to families of special needs kids, and I believe her. I’m still undecided on the election as far as McCain or Obama, but Palin gets my support.
