Background on Palin

Diane Lamb in our news library sent along a link to the Anchorage Daily News’ Sarah Palin archive, which is handy for those who want to know about the rise of the Republican Vice Presidential nominee.

Available there: video of that jet she tried to sell on e-bay. Palin made reference to the jet in her speech last night.

Also, there are stories from prior debates like this one where she said teaching creationism along side evolution in public schools would be a good idea.

The volatile issue of teaching creation science in public schools popped up in the Alaska governor's race this week when Republican Sarah Palin said she thinks creationism should be taught alongside evolution in the state's public classrooms.

Palin was answering a question from the moderator near the conclusion of Wednesday night's televised debate on KAKM Channel 7 when she said, "Teach both. You know, don't be afraid of information. Healthy debate is so important, and it's so valuable in our schools. I am a proponent of teaching both."
