'Divide and conquer' againBut come on, she's pretty-y-y-y!
Re "Palin's on the 'beer track,' " Opinion, Feb. 12
Ron Brownstein talks about Sarah Palin using class division to possibly shape the 2012 GOP presidential race.
The fact that she is using class warfare to gain attention and prominence isn't disturbing; the strategy of "divide and conquer" has been used for centuries.
What's disturbing is the large number of Americans who are supporting her campaign of ignorance. She stated during her "tea party" speech in Nashville that "I'm never going to pretend like I know more than the next person." That statement alone should disqualify her from running for president.
At a time when many American citizens base their opinions and judgments on 30-second sound bites and tweets, the fact that a person of Palin's limited intellectual capacity can become a serious presidential candidate is yet another example of the dumbing down of America.
