Pic: Maryline Blackburn - Miss Alaska 1984

"Maryline Blackburn is a European born African American singer. Blackburn won the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant ahead of Miss Wasilla, Sarah Heath, who went on to become Alaska Governor and Republican Vice Presidential candidate"  [1]

So, that's what happened! Ah-ha! I knew something traumatic had to have occurred to turn her into a skinhead with hair. Do you think Sarah Palin was racist before or after this life altering event?

Sarah Palin is a woman with such a frail ego. Her validation relies so heavily upon public perceptions of her beauty that she took $150,000 from the Republican party in an effort to make herself over. She shopped at high-end designer shops in New York and attended lengthy meetings with a stylist for her beauty debut on the political scene. All the while neglecting to sit down for 5 minutes and read the constitution so that she would have an inkling of what the vice-president does for a living.

Can you imagine being offered the opportunity to run for such a high office in the U.S. government, with precious little time to spare, and spending that precious little time on a makeover instead of studying what your job responsibilities will entail?

This is a woman for whom validation of her appearance matters far more than garnering intellect or competency. In half the time she spent at Neiman-Marcus she could have learned what the vice-president's real responsibilities were in order to be able to answer the question correctly should a 3^rd grader inquire on the subject.

Once again, she has made a silly caricature out of serious professional women by neglecting to educate herself about the political office she aspires to and making herself pretty.

But not pretty enough, according to the judges of the Miss Alaska competition in 1984. Her resentment towards blacks in America and the cause of that effect was revealed Sunday night by D.L. Hughley when his new show on CNN featured the Miss Alaska contestant who beat Sarah Palin in that 1984 competition. She was a black woman.

My question to America is this:

Do you think it could potentially jade Sarah Palin emotionally to have a black woman beat her in the Miss Alaska beauty pageant? Do you think she is emotionally strong or resilient enough not to act out inappropriately towards blacks, especially women, considering how she misused her power in troopergate when her ego was bruised then, too?

Can we risk it?

Seriously, we are not talking about an emotionally mature woman here.

TROOPERGATE!

Nuff said.
