In high school she was chosen to be captain of the basketball team. Her team won the State Championship when she was captain. In fact, she sank the winning shot in the championship game - with a broken ankle. In high school she was chosen as leader of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. When she showed up at PTA meetings in support of her own children's education, her peers said she should run for councilman. She did and she won. As a councilwoman, her peers said she should run for mayor. She did and she won. As mayor, her fellow mayors thought she should be President of the Alaska Council of Mayors. She won that election too. The Alaska governor appointed her as chair of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. Her peers thought she should run for governor. She did and she won. John McCain selected her to be his Vice Presidential running mate. What does any of the above have to do with being smart? In high school she was in the National Honor Society. She was inducted into the Sigma Beta Delta Honor Society as a student at Alaska Pacific University." Huh? S. Palin's SAT scores: cache.gawker.com
