And answer 'Yes" when you get asked if you feel you're ready to be Vice President and potentially President.
Note to Charles Gibson: HOW THE FUCK DID YOU THINK SHE WAS GOING TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION?!?!?!?! Why did you even waste the oxygen it took you to ask it???

Interestingly, according to the talking heads on MSDNC, FoxNews, and CNN, "we don't second guess Israel (or any country) on their choices of self-defense" also is the position of McCain, Obama, Biden, and officially the United States.
Similarly, all 4 of the candidates support Ukraine and Georgia joining NATO and the US having responsbilities to them.

Publicly, any American leader will that say we're not giving Israel a green light to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities, and that Israel doesn't need our permission anyway. But privately, they'll all be glad if it happens. And the Arab leaders will condemn Israel, but privately breathe a sigh of relief.

All you people have got it wrong.
Israel is not the tail that wags the dog.
They don't so a thing without OUR say-so (implicit or explicit).
They're a good client state that way- unlike Georgia, which doesn't listen to us.

I was more complaining about the trial lawyer-style questions ("Never ask a question in court to which you don't already know the answer.") than the answers. She couldn't have responded any other way to either one.
"No, you're right, I haven't a clue, I have no business running for VP. Excuse me while I go resign and let them pick someone better qualified."
"Yes, Israel has our blessing to bomb the crap out of Iran's nuclear facilities. In fact, we'll hand them the coordinates and offer backup support. And if other countries want to complain, we'll let Israel bomb them, too."
