Sarah Palin Struggles to win the confidence of Americans

·

The Republican candidate for vice president of the United States, Sarah Palin, admitted on Friday that many Americans do not feel comfortable with her because of their different political origin, but said that this will be overcome.

The governor of Alaska said that, if elected on Tuesday in the plate of John McCain, will be devoted to issues on which has experience - government reform, energy policy and as a mother baby with Down syndrome, measures to help children with special needs.

Palin, of 44 years, went through difficult times and are often taxed the inexperienced.

A research of The New York Times newspaper showed that 59 percent of North Americans not to feel that Palin is qualified to be vice president. Several analysts, including some Republicans, are also critical to it.

"It probably takes a little" so that the Americans get used to it, Palin said. "And those who have some hesitation, it is undoubtedly because you consider me as someone from outside of Washington."

But she noted that other leaders "came out of that elitism of Washington," as Democrat Bill Clinton and Republican Ronald Reagan.

"So it may take a while to get used to it, but I think that as more Americans in these next three days listen to our commitment to reform,they will be increasingly comfortable," she said.

The media speculated that Palin is launching this campaign as a candidate for president in 2012, as McCain appears in the polls. She denies this intention. "You know what I will be doing in 2012? Helping to re-elect John McCain ."

She said that the insistence of Republicans in saying that the Democrat Barack Obama will raise taxes is echoing with the electorate, and that the ticket McCain / Palin has chance to turn in several states, especially Pennsylvania, where the Democrats usually win.

"Yes, there is a feeling of motion. I feel that our campaign is set your step now, well in time. But of course I would like that we had more hours every day," she said, that criticized the presumption of Obama on the victory.

"I learned my own lessons there. I had a pair of athletic endeavors and thought: 'hey, I do not have to commit so much for victory', which was cheap for the victory was right, and just being shaken , "She said.

Palin is animated when talking about energy, a subject with which she already have involvement due to oil and gas resources in Alaska.

If Palin runs for President in 2012, at least she has name recognition going for her... but, at this point, that may not work in her favor
