* My fellow citizens, the American presidency is not supposed to be a journey of “personal discovery.†This world of threats and dangers is not just a community, and it doesn’t just need an organizer."
* Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown.
And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a “community organizer,†except that you have actual responsibilities."
