Top 10 Reasons Palin Should Run for President
June 3, 2011
by Amy Siskind
|The following op-ed is featured at The Huffington Post.
Sarah Palin and daughter Piper board her "One Nation" bus after visiting Fox News headquarters in New York on Wednesday. (The Week)
1. Our country has yet to elect a woman president – a national embarrassment! Almost every country in Europe and Latin America; along with India, Israel, New Zealand, Canada, China, Pakistan, Rwanda and many other countries have been led by a woman. The UN cites: “The achievement of democracy presupposes a genuine partnership between men and women…”; then goes on to rank the U.S. 75th for women’s representation in government (great news, we’re tied with Turkmenistan). It is time we move forward as a country and elect a woman president!
2. Left to their own devices, neither party will run a woman – in 2008, Hillary was not only betrayed by the’ Senate Boys Club’, but the DNC allowed overt sexism to hurt her chances (acknowledged by Howard Dean after she dropped out). The GOP Establishment continually discourages Palin (and Bachmann) from running. For a women of either party to become president, she’ll need to take a non-traditional, circuitous route. Since women are brought up to be ‘good girls‘ the moxie and bravery to buck the system is rare. Palin has it.
3. A generation of girls will see politics as a possibility – over the past decade, an alarming trend has developed on campus: college women are less likely to seek out positions of power. Not only avoiding politics, but also corporate America. One Ivy League woman told me her take-away freshman year on career paths for women was: “social work or medicine – you know, women need to help people.”
4. Women’s representation in leadership is moving backwards – from congress to Fortune 500 management, the percentage of women in leadership roles is decreasing. We’re moving backwards! The best way to move forward again is to get women who support other women into positions of power.
5. Palin ‘walks the walk’ on supporting and mentoring women – no one has done more to dismantle the GOP’s white-male construct than Palin. Her 2010 efforts helped deliver the country’s first Latina governor (Martinez-NM), first Indian-American woman governor (Haley-SC) and many new and returning women candidates.
6. Standing up to sexism - Palin has faced a steady barrage of sexism since 2008, including yesterday when a sign was posted on her bus referring to her as a media “whore.” In fact, women in power are frequently referred to as “sluts, bitches and whores.” Unambiguously, sexism hurts female candidates. Which is why it is so important for Palin to continue to stand up against and smack down the low-lives who perpetrate sexism and misogyny, by running despite them!
7. Women’s voices (and faces) are evaporating - increasingly, the decisions which determine the future of our country are made predominantly or exclusively by men. Although women make the bulk of consuming decisions, there is not a single woman in the federal budget negotiations or leading a major economic agency in the Obama Administration. Geez, NASA couldn’t put one female astronaut on Shuttle Endeavor’s final mission?
8. Teaching girls to take risks (and pick themselves up and try again) – our culture pressures teach girls not to take risks. That they must be perfect and not make mistakes. As a result, as women we are under-represented in high-paying jobs and top-level management positions. Palin running for office again would send a powerful message to take risks, keep trying and never give up. Truly empowering.
9. Like so many of us, Palin is a working mom – she understands the quandary facing today’s women, and how we are put in a no win situation. She’s been a victim of gender stereotyping from the moment she stepped into the national spotlight: how dare she be a working mother ?! (here, here and here). She’ll bring that understanding to office.
10. Palin made her own way – she was not the beneficiary of her father and his cronies, her fraternity, or the boys’ network. She worked hard and did well based on her own abilities, and never forgot where she came from. This gives her an implicit understanding of the battles that the marginalized and underrepresented (including women and girls) must wage to advance.
Good list! I am voting for her if she gets the nomination. If she does not I will most likely sit this one out as I cannot vote for Obama due to the 2008 Caucus Fraud that has been swept under the rug by both the DNC and the media. I cannot really see myself voting for Romney or Pawlenty. I also cannot see myself voting for Bachmann who I find to be very different from Palin.
I like how Palin governed in Alaska. She governed with a practical sensibility and from the center. She is a known risk taker which I agree with you is a very necessary quality in order for a woman to gain a nomination or win the Presidency. Now that she is free from the McCain campaign and can be her own person she is extremely exciting to watch navigate the political and media landscape. Brilliant, really. I would like to tell my 4 year old girl – look! This woman is running for President! I would also like to tell my 4 year old that we have a female President.
A neighbor of mine criticized Palin the other day stating that “Palin just wants to sell books.” See how uncomfortable we are with women in power? You are right. If we aren’t modestly helping others in some sort of teaching, social work or medical profession we are indeed bitches, whores and sluts.
Go Palin!
The last thing I would like to add is that yes, gender is a factor when I vote although I do draw the line and will not vote for a woman that I entirely dislike. Women get a huge amount of criticism whenever it is suggested that gender may be a factor in their vote.
Why?
African Americans have considered race when voting for decades. It is a smart strategy. They have voted for wonderful black candidates and some that turned out to be not so wonderful. And yet they and their children have representation which is crucial.
So whenever anyone criticizes me for considering gender I also like to ask if they like to criticize Blacks for considering race.
When people criticize me for considering gender when I vote for a woman I find it best to tell them that patriarchy has done the most damage to societies than anything else. Thus, ending patriarchy is a political issue at least as important as the debt ceiling, relations with Israel, healthcare, etc. If the media wasn’t extremely sexist news stations would be discussing the damages of patriarchy all the time which would help more people see the enormous positive transformative effect of giving women as much political jobs (at all levels) as our numbers (51%).
Amy you received a lot of naysayers on the HuffPo but thought I’d post the comment I left there, here too
“It is wonderful to read the notes from all the feminist who claim they want a woman president, just not this one..The goal of NOW has been to promote women to higher office, not just ones who meet a certain political litmus test. Palin has more experience than Obama had when he took office, is articulate, personable and frankly if you read her facebook posts and not confuse her with Tina Fey,( no one here would do that would they- everyone here is intelligent and actually reads what Palin writes not just parriot what others say right? Readers here are independent thinkers, not mimics and thoroughly research issues before positing comments right?) you will find her very intelligent and with a high grasp of the issues. I think Ms Siskind is right on each point because I have done MY homework and can confirm that what she wrote is true- great job Amy”
nice defense Bruce. derogatory sexual slants and lack of brains (stupid) is the age-old patriarchal weapon. the saying I learned as kid in Germany was long hair short brain.
Amy great list. would love to vote for her again.
Henrietta, like your points. re bachmann: she is clearly more in line with her party and less a maverick in my view. if she made it through the primary, I don’t see enough evil to not vote for the woman. and yes gender voting is just as important as race voting was/is.
is there any other deterrent to the sexist onslaught besides getting a women in top positions despite it? if the strategy is proven ineffective to keep women from winning it might stop. but what else could we do?
one more reason to have Palin run. nothing sweater than see Obama lose against despite the barrage of sexism they undoubtedly will swing against her.
You’re all joking right? I didn’t realize any old uterus would do. Palin quit her last job, leaves a handicapable child in the care of others and has proven time after time to be capable only of whining about what a victim she is. That’s someone for our daughters to follow? I’d rather they follow Hilary (who by the way fought the same fight against the GOP long before Palin made her mark), Pelosi, or Snow. There are plenty of better female candidates than Palin. I’d rather have a woman who can stand on her own two feet, face any reporter or critic and has actual policy experience to help bring this country forward.
Palin’s got my vote. But the pigs in charge are offended because she didn’t attend one of the approved legacy indoctrinating universities, hasn’t even lived on the east coast and also is a woman. She is the antithesis of every thing their precious elitist little brains hold true and dear and she is exactly what this country needs.
Anna, for me and others the sweet thing when seeing a woman win is the healing that takes place. It’s not about the men who run against women, but about the goodness that permeates society when women win. Part of the pain and disease male domination has caused is replaced by a female healing that we all need.
read today a headline that Palin flopped a question on Paul Revere. I am sure, we will be hearing about many more questions to be passed by female candidates.
what about asking questions about Sybil Ludington’s role in the revolutionary war to all the male candidates.
see here for info on her
http://www.nwhm.org/online-exh.....ngton.html
Marille,
I cannot believe they quizzed her on a piece of folklore that all of us were told during grade school. Paul Revere is not an important part of history but he did evolve into folklore.
I would love to see: Romney, Huckabee, Herman Cain, Giuliani, Pawlenty, Trump, Rick Perry, Paul Ryan, Allen West, Obama, or pre-scandal Schwartzenegger given little quizzes and tests all along the campaign trail while simultaneously ignore anything substantial said candidates had to say.
Meanwhile Palin was in NH speaking about federal fishing regulations and other federal regulations that greatly impact the New England seacoast and their economies but… not so interesting to the media!
Marille, Palin was correct about Paul Revere, therefore the false accusations against her by so many media are further examples of the media’s hatred of women which leads them to try to block us from political office. The reason Paul Revere rode out to say “The British are coming” was because the British army was on a mission to take the colonial militia’s stock of arms (guns). Every word she said was accurate. Palin, in a folksy manner, states that Paul Revere warned the colonists; that the reason he warned them was to prevent the British from “takin away our arms” and that he did this to keep the colonists “secure” and be “free” (because we needed guns to fight the Revolutionary War to gain our freedom).
Here is the sexist LA Times article that falsely accuses Palin even while quoting her clearly stating she knows what Revere did to benefit America:
http://latimesblogs.latimes.co.....-arms.html
Note the long list of sexist articles that twist history to falsely accuse a woman candidate of not knowing what she in fact knows. So even when women candidates speak facts the media apparently will deliberately try to convince readers of the opposite. I find it difficult to believe so many journalists don’t know the details of Paul Revere’s ride which is their job as history recorders, so the logical explanation is that they are making false accusations against a great woman politician because they, overall, hate women and want to prevent us from gaining equal political power as men.
Soooo…. what is the issue with her Paul Revere statement? Was it the bells? Her account seems pretty close to historical records. Or is the problem her folksy mannerisms and way of speaking? Must politicians all sound like college professors? Well, not if your name is Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, Mike Huckabee (beloved by Chris Matthews), Jesse Jackson or Joe Biden.
http://www.paulreverehouse.org/ride/real.html
Honestly, I would like for feminists to go on the offense and start quizzing male politicians across the country and youtubing their imperfect responses. And then… of course we would have to categorize most every male politician as stupid and unqualified.
Here is what I wonder. Go over to the Huff Puff and read the comments on this article. They are uninspired group think. They are all very anti Palin, they all list the litany of crap the Democrats and their media used against Palin in 2008 and they are clearly very proud of their ability to regurgitate this crap. So this tells us there is a large portion of Democrats who don’t think and are susceptible and even comforted by vapid jingoism. Maybe they don’t have a religion so this catechism of “facts and beliefs” that they can mindlessly, unquestionably repeat gives them a sense of identity and belonging.
So how do we co-opt this for the good of women and the world? We need to change the message they are receiving and repeating because dumb as they are, these people can vote. We need to be the people who are forming and sending the messages. I am as sorry as anyone else that there are so many dumb people in the world (Obamacrats called them sheepole) but since vapid voters are a fact of life, how do women’s groups exploit it.
“I can see FDR from my Plasma Screen!”
– VP Joe Biden with Katie Couric, 2008
Bes, one thing Palin has showed me since she has “reloaded” after ’08 is that it is important to go on the offensive when you are dealing with a slandering media. She constantly criticizes the President, the media, the insular element of the GOP and she does so in very funny ways.
I think feminists who want to give female politicians a fair shake need to go on the offensive with male politicians. Instead of constantly defending every little time the media tries to humiliate a female politician over something ridiculous (i.e. Paul Revere) start attacking male politicians for the same sort of crap. I’m talking about a grassroots sort of media to attack these male politicians. Ask every man running for a political office about Alice Paul or Ida B. Wells as well as male historical figures. Ask them about the true story of Sacajawea (which I doubt most of our male politicos know about). Let’s see then who is an idiot and who is unqualified to be Prez, or Governor or Senator.
Sorry for the typos above. If I were running for office this would somehow be used to demonstrate my lack of qualifications.
Henrietta, it’s standard practice for the media to ask women quiz type questions but not men. For example, during an important televised debate a male journalist treated Hillary Clinton like his student asking her who the name of the next Russian leader will be and Hillary answers correctly but because she mispronounce his name and the media made a big deal out of it:
http://inogolo.com/pronunciati.....y_Medvedev
Journalists frequently enjoy treating women politician’s like their students I guess because it gives them a sense of power over “uppity women” that try to end male domination by seeking male dominated offices like the presidency. And every time I’ve seen this it is always a male journalist asking the quiz question. I would rather know a politician’s understanding of the issues more than I want to hear them quote names and dates.
However, if journalists ask quiz questions I agree that men should also be asked quiz questions the same as women. News stations should publicly denounce and put a journalist on temporary leave if they are interviewing female and male candidates and discriminate against women by only asking the women quiz questions. The same should apply if a journalist interviews a man and woman separately and only asks the woman quiz questions.
After reading some comments after I posted my complaint on the LA Times story I realized that some commentators might actually be unable to understand rather than being sexist, because they are reading the following sentence as one : “He who warned, uh, the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms.” However, I’m familiar with Palin’s unique speaking style having read and viewed hundreds of her quotes. I read this as two sentences. She introduces the main aspect of Paul Revere, “He who warned.”
Then part two is stating what he warned about (the danger). So the second sentence is essentially saying “The British weren’t going to be taking away our arms” (because of Revere’s warning). Palin chose to repeatedly focus on the purpose of Paul Revere’s ride:
1) The Essential
to warn
2) The Short-Term Goal
to prevent the British from taking away our arms (guns)
3) The Long-Term Military Goal
to make us “secure” [note how the LA Times maliciously or mistakenly misquoted Palin’s word “secure” as seen in the video by falsely stating she said “sure”)
4) The Final Goal
“we were going to be free”
The more I contemplate the quote the more I greatly admire Palin’s mind. In a brief quote she was able to tell us Paul Revere’s profession (silversmith), the political side he took during the war (pro-Revolution Patriot as opposed to pro-British Loyalist), the essence of Paul Revere’s historical significance (“He who warned”), the short-term purpose of his famous ride (to prevent the British from “takin’ away our arms” which was a stash of guns the Patriots had in Concord, MA that the British were sent on a mission to get), the long-term purpose (to make us “secure” militarily), and the final historical purpose (to make us “free” -the main goal of the Revolution). It’s a brilliant speech that shows not just that Palin can quickly quote facts from her memory rather than a teleprompter but, more importantly, that she understands and can convey the significance of those facts in securing America’s independence and ongoing freedom which ties into her strong promotion of freedom and he Constitution as a Tea Party proponent.
So she connects past history with her current political work. This was very easy for me to understand. I wonder why others don’t understand the quote or do they understand and are trying to denigrate a great American woman because they hate women? We need leaders such as Palin who don’t just memorize historical data but can quickly sift through the data to find the most important aspects of it, interpret the data, and understand how the data relates to current political issues.
I agree with Nancy and Henrietta. What’s with the “let’s quiz the woman” mentality? The thing is if you read Huff Puff comments they continually state “she isn’t even educated” meaning she hasn’t attended one of the east coast approved institutions of legacy indoctrination so she can learn the group think that has driven our country, the old media and financial institutions to the edge of failure. These people who froth their sexist opinions at us from monopoly media conglomerates are not like us and they don’t represent American opinion. Remember the magazines, newspapers and TV channels controlled by these elitists are steadily losing consumers and it is because they don’t reflect the culture. The only way their TV channels exist is because they control the delivery medium (cable TV) and are able to stop all competing channels (ideas)from getting their product to market and they force subscription to their channels on everyone who signs up for cable to get clear reception on PBS and the local traffic and weather news. They know that if they ever gave cable choice to consumers no one would choose their channels and they would be out of business however if they were reflecting culture and society as they claim this should not be a worry as everyone would sign up for their channels.
As women we do have consumer power, perhaps we should go after the advertisers of any program which treats women candidates in a sexist manner.
Bes, one thing Palin has showed me since she has “reloaded” after ’08 is that it is important to go on the offensive when you are dealing with a slandering media. She constantly criticizes the President, the media, the insular element of the GOP and she does so in very funny ways.
If anything, this should be the eleventh and possibly the #1 reason she should run. Primarily because she’s still standing after the last three years yet apparently winning the battle.
Not the one for the Presidency, but the one with the media. One of the biggest media memes about her – from both sides of the aisle – is that she doesn’t engage with the press and yet we have this today:
Governor Palin Took Questions From the Media 17 Times This Week; Updated: Reporters “Ran Out of Questions”
http://conservatives4palin.com.....-week.html
Going back, all the way to when she was running for city council, everyone has always said that retail politics, getting out and shaking the hands of the people, one-on-one, was and is her greatest strength and where she draws her power with and from the electorate.
Well, that power has just been unleased with no one calling the shots but her and the media and political establishment doesn’t quite know what to do with the oh-so-sweetly smiling predator prowling in their midst. Particularly when she appears to be doing nothing more than shaking hands of every day people.
Such an odd thing for a politician to do, you know.
People who like Palin’s actual politics, as well as her abilities, should absolutely vote for her. People who vote for the sexual organs of their elected representatives should absolutely vote for the primate whose plumbing most accurately represents their ideal primate plumbing.
But for the rest of us, the actual thinking voters and, yes, the actual Feminists with a feminist agenda, we will no more vote for Palin than we would for a talking barbie doll. Palin’s actual record of governance–whether you are conservative or liberal–is abysmal. She left Wasilla mired in debt. She abused her position as Governor and faced ethics lawsuits so serious that she quit her job midway through her first term. These are not smears, these are simply the facts.
As for Palin as a feminist icon. Well, I grant you that she served, however, briefly, as Governor. Other women have done that and not quit their jobs, of course. She is also a woman who has children. Mysteriously, all working women with children are working mothers. The job of president doesn’t go to Palin because she has kids. As for the quality of her mothering well, that speaks for itself. Bristol is a cheesy disgrace who will need years of external support to be any kind of adequate working mother. The others? Well, I’m not holding my breath to see if they ever develop into anything other than grifters, like their mother. But your mileage may vary. I’m the mother of two girls. At Bristol and Piper’s age my main concern for them is that they should use their privilige–and Bristol and Piper are priviliged members of the upper class of course–to get the best education available and dedicate their lives to helping others through science, medicine, law, or politics. Dancing with the stars? Reality TV? Teen pregnancy shill? Candidate prop (Piper)? These are not exactly shining examples of Palin’s mentoring or motherinng capability.

Some comment about Sarah whining about the press. She never whines. She has looked straight into the camera and told them to do their job. Now she says ignore the liars, the ones who still ‘make things up.’
The founders understood the importance of a free press. As long as we have one – we’ll have liberty. We should work with Palin to free it.
Palin Derangement Syndrome. It is a problem and brings out the sexist in many otherwise good people.
My husband and I were talking about PDS even within the Republican party and he thought Palin was giving clues that she may run as an Independent. She is very threatening to insiders from both parties. No wonder the need to slander her.
Aimai: How very idealistic you are. It is true Palin isn’t perfect. I realize some people cling to the need for a perfect woman candidate probably with the hope and idea that then the yapping heads won’t try to tear her apart. You need to remember that most people are not on board with the Obamarama group think. Obama was a half term Senator who voted “present” when he did show up to vote. He spent most of his time during his half term of office running for President. And the 2008 Democrat Primary which nominated him was as corrupt as any banana republic election could be. So I think it is pretty lame of Obamaphiles to try to tar Palin with not serving a full term. And I think it is pretty lame that Obama doesn’t stand up and say “let’s stop the sexism now people, it’s not good for the country” (better extremely late than never). Also every state in the union is in deep deep financial trouble, that is the economy dictated to us regular, honest folks by the Ivy League rapists who run the country.
I am not impressed that Obama or any of the other male candidates for President are good for the country. Neither political party represents my ideas. Both parties coddle misogynists. I don’t think either political party serves the common good or the good of the United States. In fact I think it is ridiculous that we in the west allow a bunch of self important little tiny states on the East Coast to rule the country and I think we would be better off splitting the country at the Rocky mountain range. Let them have their corrupt little system and govern themselves and start a new west coast government which at least doesn’t have institutionalized graft. We can’t carry these entitled twits on our backs forever.
Michelle Bachmann is actually closer to announcing her candidacy than Palin–will TNA write a similar post in support of Bachmann?
Additionally, I look forward to TNA’s reaction to the support that prominent women of all political stripes lend to male candidates. So far, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Meg Whitman are clearly in Romney’s camp, and I’m sure others will follow. I can’t imagine Republican luminaries like Condoleezza Rice or Kay Bailey Hutchison supporting Palin or Bachmann. Lisa Murkowski, who beat Palin’s stand-in in a historic write-in candidacy (!) in Alaska, thinks Palin lacks the intellectual curiosity to be president.
TNA has of course shown strong support for Hillary Clinton, Kirsten Gillibrand, Gabrielle Giffords–all women who will support President Obama for re-election. New DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz offered up absolutely scathing criticism of Palin (and the McCain campaign for choosing her in a cycnical attempt to woo women) in ’08. She will no doubt have some choice words for Palin this time around.
Hey, Bes, some of us live in the middle of the country. Careful about lumping us in with either extreme edge, literally or figuratively.
“Lisa Murkowski, who beat Palin’s stand-in in a historic write-in candidacy (!) in Alaska, thinks Palin lacks the intellectual curiosity to be president.”
LOL.
I have to laugh anytime I hear someone use the word “incurious” or similar phrases to describe Palin. It’s like high school. People are terrified to have a different, more honest, more varied and complex opinion of Palin. Gotta repeat what the popular kids are saying! BTW, Murkowski and Palin have a long and somewhat feuding history. It’s no surprise that Murkowski would have unkind words for Palin. It’s also no surprise to see women supporting male candidates. We’ve done so forever and I guess it still feels more comfortable for many.
I don’t know what TNA will say about Bachmann running but I think it’s fabulous to see her running despite the fact that I dislike her immensely and would never vote for it. But it does mean that the culture is changing when women start running for the highest positions with regularity. Better a Bachmann than a Huckabee! That’s how I view it.
Great post, Amy. I think every woman (and man) should support your article, even if they disagree with Palin politically.
Just think about the question, should Palin run? I mean that’s like saying, “should this woman be allowed to apply for a job?” “Should this woman be allowed to participate in the democratic process?” Darn right she should! It’s horrifying that here in 2011, anybody would even doubt that.
Myself, I think Palin is twice as qualified as any man out there and also has the added benefit of never having bought a mistress gifts with campaign funds, or gone toe tapping in the men’s room for male prostitutes, or slashed up anybody’s face with a broken bottle. I mean honestly, given the track record of many male candidates, we have a huge double standard in this country.
Man or woman, if you continually make yourself sound uneducated, people believe you are. Palin has done nothing but make one gaffe after another and then whines about how it was a gotcha question. Even an illiterate person can name a newspaper. For all her comments about “gotcha” questions, she shows how much she depends on the victim role to cover her considerable shortcomings as a political candidate. As a feminist, I want a woman who will fight the system, succeed and then flip off those who told her she couldn’t do it. Talking about the lame stream media and gotcha questions and only talking to those people to whom she is paid to talk to (Fox News) doesn’t do that for me. She just another barbie for the policial system to parade around to women that they understand our side. They don’t and she doesn’t either since she is their all to willing pawn.
Iris, we aren’t impressed with liberal group think or flawless recitation of the liberal misogynist catechism of Palin. Murkowski is a legacy, she was appointed to be Senator by her father while he was Governor of Alaska. When he was up for reelection as Governor, he came in third in a three way race, Sarah Palin won the election, that is why Murkowski doesn’t like her. Palin is fighting the system. She fights it by refusing to be defined by the media who being a bunch of uninspired idiots have a very narrow range of definition for women. Every male politician makes gaffs also. The corporate media is a useless collection of yappers who seek attention for profit. They place no value on accurate or insightful reporting. There is no reason I can see for any candidate to subject themselves to interviews with corporate advertising venues and that is all the media is.
Until those who continue to criticize Palin hold the same standards for the men, I cannot take them seriously.
Palin is, indeed, fighting the system and she will be tarred and feathered every step of the way, because this country is filled to the brim with misogyny and misogynist who would rather destroy the country than have a woman in charge of it.
The predonominately male controlled Congress, media and political parties have shown themselves to be unworthy of our trust and support, based on the present state of our country. These guys have a lot of balls asking whether Palin should run or not. They are the ones who have run this country in the ground and refuse to acknowledge it, much less accept responsibility for it.
There has never been a time when women were needed more than now.
