    Foreign Policy Experience

    September 23rd, 2008 by elenamary

    I was on a walk with my dear friend Miles Curtiss of Marvin the Robot fame and we were discussing local politics. I had mentioned that maybe some day I’d like to run for mayor of Columbus and that I do know a fair amount of people in the city.  Miles responded that I also had more experience than Sarah Palin. I begged to differ, I mean she has been mayor of a city of 9,000. To which Miles responded “You definitely have more foreign policy experience than she does. You ran for Mexican congress.”

    A few years ago I ran for what would be the equivalent of a congressional representative for the Instituo de Los Mexicanos en el Exterior to represent Mexicans living in the Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana region. My archives are still down from when I ran but you can read some of the great endorsements I got at the following links: Entrevista a Elena Mary, Elena Mexican Representative at Large, Elena Mary pa’ presidenta (well, representative), Candidate Elena, Elenamary en Planeta Grenada.

    Anyway, the point of all this was, OMG! I do have more foreign policy experience than Sarah Palin! That is not okay. I cannot tell you about the upheaval going on in South Africa right now, I cannot explain to you why Bolivia is…well Bolivia,  I cannot begin to understand the diplomacy needed for North Korea. And I should not be vice president of our Country.  Our country should be lead by our best, our brightest, like people that have been President of the Harvard Law Review not those that had to try half a dozen different colleges before they found one they could get through.

    Wow, I Elenamary, have more foreign policy experience than Sarah Palin, that is WRONG.

      There is no point in lying, your IP 24.160.170.253 , visits my site multiple times a day on a daily bases. In fact you are one of my most frequent visitors.

      Since you are already on a roll of being wrong, why not continue it? My post was humble, the point of it was that I have little to no foreign policy experience and yet I have more experience then Sarah Palin. Our country, all countries, deserve to be lead by the brightest and best. Again if I have more experience then those leading we are obviously not being lead by our best and brightest.

      Perhaps you have lost sight of what is important in your spending multiple hours a day focusing on me?
