Questions from Gibson's June 4 interview of Obama:

How does it feel to break a glass ceiling?
How does it feel to “win”?
How does your family feel about your “winning” breaking a glass ceiling?
Who will be your VP?
Should you choose Hillary Clinton as VP?
Will you accept public finance?
What issues is your campaign about?
Will you visit Iraq?
Will you debate McCain at a town hall?
What did you think of your competitor’s [Clinton] speech?

Questions from Gibson's first portion of Palin interview:

Do you have enough qualifications for the job you’re seeking? Specifically have you visited foreign countries and met foreign leaders?
Aren’t you conceited to be seeking this high level job?
Questions about foreign policy
-territorial integrity of Georgia
-allowing Georgia and Ukraine to be members of NATO
-NATO treaty
-Iranian nuclear threat
-what to do if Israel attacks Iran
-Al Qaeda motivations
-the Bush Doctrine

Cal, you're a theatre guy! You should know the answer to this one!

In "Of Thee I Sing" (the first musical to win the Pulitzer for Drama), Vice President Throttlebottom gets up in the morning, checks the papers to see if the President's still alive. If the President's alive, he goes out and feeds the pigeons in the park.
I am about 25% sure of this.

cal:
Now that I've seen it (thanks 10s), I do believe that she was being a little flippant about it, but I don't believe that it truly supports the claim that she doesn't know what a VP does.
I'm convinced that she didn't know the VP presides over the Senate. But then I don't like her.
