Sarah Palin’s Foreign Policy Crash Course.
Over the next 2 days, Sarah Palin is scheduled to meet with nine world leaders.
The meetings are taking place in New York City; Palin is taking advantage of the current session of the United Nations General Assembly.
On Tuesday she is meeting with Afghani President, Hamid Karzai, Colombian President, Alvaro Uribe, and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. On Wednesday, Palin will meet with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Also on Wednesday, Palin will be joined by Senator John McCain to meet with Georgian Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili and Ukrainian President Viktor Yuschenko.
The meetings are open to the media for photography purposes only; Governor Palin will not be answering any questions from the press.
Do these meetings boost Palin’s Foreign Policy credentials? This method is the same generally used by politicians who hope to introduce themselves to the world stage.
Are those on her “list” major world leaders? Are these the countries that she and John McCain will have to be dealing with if they are elected to office?
I just love how media are only there for photo purposes only. Apparently it’s all just a show so the Republicans can once again manipulate the press for more shallow coverage of Palin.
Besides, I think the McCain camp decided that Palin had done enough talking after the Charlie Gibson interview.
