"If you don't like change, you're going to like irrelevance even less." - GEN Eric Shinseki (Former US Army Chief of Staff)
Why I’m Here

MTV Choose or Lose '08 Alaska!!!

 


I joined to help bring awareness to Alaskan issues that could potentially impact the rest of the nation, such as ANWR, oil development, developing a natural gas pipeline, alternative energy development, military affairs, Native American affairs, and many more issues. I'm also here to bring to light other issues that highly affect the residents of Alaska, such as mental health, drugs & alcohol, transportation issues, ethics & corruption, & much, much more. I also grew up in the US Army and want to give children and spouses of the military a platform to stand on and be heard from. On an even more personal level I am here to talk and learn about children's rights, energy issues, the war in Iraq (the good and bad points) and to help destroy the ultimate enemy of today's youth--partisanship! Both parties try to court us and trick us and charm us, when the fact of the matter is that no singular party has the solution.

Issues Important to Me

Thank You, From Alaska.

We in Alaska have still got a ways to go in determining the end of our election--maybe tonight we will know!

 

But in the meantime, this is what I have to say at the end of this. For everyone.

Election Results + Beer = Fun. A Mellow...

The election hub might be at the Westmark Hotel in downtown Fairbanks, but the place to be for mellow conversation, a safe environment, and a good beer, too... would be the UAF Pub.

Palin Tailors Campaign Speech to Alaska
Some complain that Governor Sarah Palin's campaign speech is a recycled version of her RNC speech. But in Alaska on September 10th, she changed a few things up.
