Good morning all,
The debate last night gave us some perspective on each candidate. Joe Biden was full of substance and detail. Sarah Palin had good responses about votes that should could not have known without being prepped. That info has proven false but for the sake of debate were used appropriately. Here is where I am disappointed. The second female nomination had to use the only VP debate to demonstrate basic human competence. Then blame the gaffs on the media. Katie Curic is not one for hard ball interviews. She and Charlie Gibson asked relevant straightforward questions. Sarah Palin's own mistakes ignited the ridicule. A powerful woman does not hide behind mistakes. A powerful woman does not take the prestigious opportunity of the VP debate to merely prove she is coherent. I want a woman in the White House. Someone that has to prove her stance and leadership, not her competence.

To be honest here, with regard to not let judgment pass, it is most obvious the woman you seek in leadership can never exist by your own omissions.
Now I must admit this is a difficult problem, one which can only be solved by truth. One's inclination, or declination, whichever one prefers, can only be met with direct experience with any subject. Belief is so powerful that it can tarnish existence. Feelings are well known to be commonplace, easily managed by those who have any knowledge of manipulation.
While you may think you have reached certain conclusions on your own recognizance, do not undermine the power of the media from which you have drawn them. True thoughts come from direct experience in life, anything else is subject to rhetorical constructs within the mind. The search for ultimate truth can only begin with such omissions of the things we can only perceive.
Now to the subject of power. While you easily unravel what power is not, you fail to determine what power is. You must understand that you can not simply undermine such importance. The most simple definition of power is the ability to produce an effect. It is most certain by your words, you have unwillingly become an outcome. Perhaps it is much easier for you to now understand the those outcomes for which you do not equate. Your matter here becomes that of opinion, which has absolutely nothing to do with truth.
Hopefully, your mind can now process your disappointment correctly. For your "judgment" upon "both" "subjects" was in my "opinion" irrational, and you have nothing to be ashamed of. The real truth of the matter is that power has no bounds, not gender, not race, not social nor ideological. Power exists in all of us, and we need to be aware of such truth. Otherwise if we fail to acknowledge it, if we fail to use it correctly, we fail in our meaning of existence.
Ponder, as I am sure this one will come up again.
