[quote rgG]Ms. Palin appears to have traveled very little outside the United States. In July 2007, she had to get a passport before she visited members of the Alaska National Guard stationed in Kuwait, according to her deputy communications director, Sharon Leighow. She also visited wounded troops in Germany during that trip.
I lived in Oman from 1992 through 1995 and the Netherlands from 1996 through 1999 and during that time visited 30 countries, some multiple times. If I wanted to go anywhere outside the US right now, even to Canada or Mexico, I would have to get a passport. Does that mean that I have never been outside the US. No, it would mean that my old one has expired.
Of much more importance in Sara Palin's case is whether she knows anything about world history and current events. You can travel and party all over the world and not know a thing about the countries you visit.
