Sarah Palin Plays the Flute in Miss Alaska Competition

Share  submit to reddit    

Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin played the flute for the talent portion of the Miss Alaska competition in 1984. See above video.

During the 1992 Presidential Campaign, Bill Clinton made a surprise appearance on The Arsenio Hall Show, see video below, wearing dark sunglasses, he played "Heartbreak Hotel" on his saxophone. At the time, he was trailing in the polls, and some critics have suggested that this appearance captured the imagination of the American people, and turned the race around. In the end, Clinton carried 43 percent of the vote, easily defeating George Bush Senior and Ross Perot, and making him the forty second President of the United States of America.

Having musical talent helps win political campaigns.

    Are you that desperate HG to get your weak republicans elected that you are now comparing Palin’s horrific flute playing to Clinton’s sax as a sure fire path to the White House? Please go back to Hollywood gossip reporting and stop forcing your political propaganda down your loyal reader’s throats.

    You are proving the point that liberal democrats may have tried to relabel themselves as open minded progressives, but they refuse to accept anyone else’s point of view. It’s humor, which the open minded probably got.

    Well that settles it. There goes any hope of the Democrats winning this election. Man, they were so close, too. Even though 51% of Americans think that Sarah Palin is unqualified for the job, this video from 24 years ago will single handedly bump her up to a 3-digit percentage of Americans thinking that not only is she qualified, but ready, willing, and able to serve as Vice President along with Senator McCain if America so annoints their brows with the chrism of God Almighty’s Plan . And if you don’t think that the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant holds more water than the Arsenio Hall show… well, you’re just in denile. Palin/McCain ‘08!!!!!!!11
