Quote by Sarah Palin
“Proverbs 23:21 When government limits itself to defending our lives and liberty, it creates the right environment for the people to thrive and prosper. Of course, expecting government to limit itself is like handing a chocoholic a Hershey bar and just hoping for the best. We haven’t been getting “the best.” The government, binging on its own power, has insinuated itself into every aspect of life. Bureaucrats tell our children what they can eat in school (even if the kids refuse to eat it), they tell us how large our soft drinks can be (I can’t imagine that’s what the Founders had in mind), they shut down kids’ “illegal” lemonade stands for not having a proper permit (!), and apparently they can even force us to bake cakes for events that some find immoral or wrong. Too many people in government think it is their job to tell you what to do, what to think, and how to behave. Every bureaucrat operates under the assumption that he knows best how individual citizens should lead their lives. But that’s not what freedom is all about. SWEET FREEDOM IN Action Today, if you have children or grandchildren, encourage them in the principle of self-reliance. Remember that whenever you—or they—get that feeling that “something must be done,” you should resist the temptation of turning to government, and instead do it yourself. You can make a heck of a lot better decisions for your family than government ever can.”

In November 2006, Sarah Palin was elected as the first female and youngest governor of the US State of Alaska. She was the mayor of the city of Wasilla, Alaska from 1996 to 2002. She had also been a member of Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996 and chairman of Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission from 2003 to 2004. Sarah Palin, a running mate of Senator John McCain, was the Republican Party's first female vice-presidential nominee.
Sarah Palin was born into a Roman Catholic family. Her family joined a Pentecostal church, Assembly of God, that she attended until 2002. She later joined Wasilla Bible Church because according to her they offered children's ministries.
Palin was a member of the Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996. She was elected twice but could not complete her second term, as she ran for the city's mayor elections in 1996, which she eventually won. She was the Mayor of the city of Wasilla for three consecutive terms. One interesting fact about her first year in the office of mayor was that she kept a box in which the names of all Wasilla residents were put. Every week she would pick out a name, call the person and ask about the functioning of the city. This act of her's earned her respect and popularity among the people of Wasilla. On December 4, 2006, she became the governor of Alaska. She has done a lot for the state - most important being the development of oil and natural gas resources.
