Recently got this in an email and thought I'd share it with the world.
If you grow up in Hawaii , raised by your grandparents, you're "exotic and different."
If you grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, it’s the quintessential American story.
***************
If your name is Barack, you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
If you name your kids Willow , Trig and Track, you're a maverick.
***************
If you graduate from Harvard law School, you are unstable.
If you attend five different small colleges before graduating, you're well-grounded.
***************
If you:
spend three years as a community organizer,
become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review,
create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters,
spend twelve years as a Constitutional Law professor,
spend eight years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people,
become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee,
spend four years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people,
sponsor 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is:
local weather girl
four years on the city council of a town with less than 7,000 people,
six years as the mayor of the same small town,
twenty months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people,
getting a passport two years ago,
never traveled outside the United States until last year except to go Mexico and Canada ,
then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive.
***************
If you have been married to the same woman for nineteen years while raising two beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife, who waited years for your return, with a rich heiress, then left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.
***************
If you want to teach young children about sexual predators, you are irresponsible and eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system, you're very responsible.
***************
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent America 's.
If you're husband is nicknamed "First Dude", with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that hates America and advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.
OK, it’s much clearer now.
