My sister has a core 2 Duo Macbook 4,1 with 2 gigs ram currently running 10.6.8. She's wants to upgrade to Yosemite because she can't use YouTube due to lack of a plug-in.
Youtube does not need any plug-ins at all.
What do you all think is the highest system she can run on that machine?
The latest and greatest: OS X 10.10 "Yosemite" although I suggest max'ing out RAM to 4 GB (6 GB with the OWC kit).
I presume I can find them on the app store on her machine and just do the download from that.
That is correct—you can upgrade directly to Yosemite from 10.6.8 via the App Store.
