    Alaska is the biggest state.

    In fact I remember the joke going around when Alaska became a state that Texans had better zip their lips about state size or Alaska would divide into two states and that would make Texas number three.

    So Sarah Palin is eminently qualified to guide a nation of 300 million diverse people. I wouldn't be surprised if she has actually met a black person by now.
