Quote by Sarah Palin
“CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE: YOU IN? Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!” Acts 5:29 The English historian Lord Acton wrote, “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority: still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority.” People can’t seem to help themselves. When they get a taste of power, they often abuse it and lord it over everyone else. That includes legislators, chief executives, and even judges (and justices of the Supreme Court). Laws, made under the guise of authority, are sometimes bad laws that oppress the innocent. If a law is unjust and opposed to God’s laws, we need to oppose it. Throughout our history—most famously with the abolitionist movement—Americans have done just that. Like the apostles, we must obey God’s eternal moral law rather than the human-made law of the moment. Our Founding Fathers were suspicious of government power—especially the power of the federal government—because they too understood that power corrupts. We should always view government power suspiciously and reject it when it oversteps its bounds. SWEET FREEDOM IN Action Today, pledge to support candidates for office who actually believe in limited government as set forth in our Constitution and who give paramountcy to God’s eternal law.”

Sarah Palin was born into a Roman Catholic family. Her family joined a Pentecostal church, Assembly of God, that she attended until 2002. She later joined Wasilla Bible Church because according to her they offered children's ministries.
Palin was a member of the Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996. She was elected twice but could not complete her second term, as she ran for the city's mayor elections in 1996, which she eventually won. She was the Mayor of the city of Wasilla for three consecutive terms. One interesting fact about her first year in the office of mayor was that she kept a box in which the names of all Wasilla residents were put. Every week she would pick out a name, call the person and ask about the functioning of the city. This act of her's earned her respect and popularity among the people of Wasilla. On December 4, 2006, she became the governor of Alaska. She has done a lot for the state - most important being the development of oil and natural gas resources.
