428 DAYS...                                DEB HEISLER

I am what you might call a “late bloomer” when it comes to my awareness of, and admiration for, Sarah Palin.  My political consciousness was pretty much nonexistent until recently.  In fact, it wasn’t until our current president began running our nation into the ground, that I began to emerge from my state of oblivion.  Little by little, I felt a connection being forged as I found myself drawn to Sarah Palin both spiritually and personally.  Slowly I started to listen, to really hear the substance of what she was conveying.  It was far more than simply her magnetism; it gave me tangible hope that the downward spiral we were experiencing not only COULD be reversed - it WOULD be.

As my confidence in this incredible lady grew, I noticed something else.  The people who support her, whose loyalty and passion are fierce, have become more like family to me.  I find myself drawn to them as brothers and sisters with a common goal…to protect and help elect this uniquely amazing woman who we instinctively know we can entrust with our children’s future.

As we put our boots on the ground, one foot in front of the other, we form a massive body that is unswerving in our resolve.  Governor Palin, we back you 100% and declare, “GAME ON”!

P.S.  Kudos go out to my little sis - the one who not only schooled me on how to join the ranks as a Palinista, but who also loaned me her “running” shoes for this photo!

“Don’t Retreat-Reload!”  

Hi, I’m Rebecca Herzog, 20, from Cincinnati, Ohio.  Majoring in Political Science at Wright State University, I have learned from one special woman a trait to take on through all endeavors;  don’t retreat, just reload!

Like most college students, I had reached a tough spot in my education career. As a Sophomore, I was bouncing back and forth between majors. Since a little girl I wanted to teach. Teaching turned into becoming a Sociologist. It wasn’t until 2008 when my true passion finally surfaced- Politics.

At my University, Sarah Palin announced her candidacy for Vice President. I wasn’t interested at all. “Going Rogue,” Palin’s first book, a best seller, was given to me as a gift and I tossed it to the side. It wasn’t until a few months later that I opened this book, read the preface, and instantly fell in love. I was beyond thrilled to find someone with identical beliefs of my own.

Sarah Palin has inspired me in a way to “go rogue.” I’m honored to say that two years later, I am a proud Tea Party Patriot, Youth For Palin Administrator, National Director of Tea Party Women Relations, National Co-Spokesperson for Tea Party Students, National Spokesperson for Students for Sarah Palin, A-Team International Coalition’s American Delegate, and Freedomism Media partial content provider.

The next step in my professional career is to attend Law school in Washington, D.C.. Between now and then, it is my goal to help Sarah Palin achieve that spot she so greatly deserves in the White House. As I’ve stated before, I’m going to hit the ground running (in my red leather heels, of course!) and do what it takes to acquire the change our beautiful country so deserves.

Why should Sarah Palin be our next President of the United States? She is a woman who has strong moral courage. She's been under attack for 3 years and never let it get to her. She leads by example and has fun doing it. Plus it is she who people listen to, not Obama or any of those losers.  People say that supporting her is like how people supported Obama. Not true. We're not going to break out in songs about her.  Chant a stupid slogan over and over. We support her because of what we have read about her and are doing our homework. The great thing about her is she is real and one of us.

RUN SARAH RUN.
