Sarah Palin Thinks Africa is a Country?

A little morning gossip. Apparently former vice-presidential candidate Governor Sarah Palin didn’t know that Africa is not a country, according to a Fox News correspondent…

Perhaps one of the most astounding and previously unknown tidbits about Sarah Palin has to do with her already dubious grasp of geography. According to Fox News Chief Political Correspondent Carl Cameron, there was great concern within the McCain campaign that Palin lacked “a degree of knowledgeability necessary to be a running mate, a vice president, a heartbeat away from the presidency,” in part because she didn’t know which countries were in NAFTA, and she “didn’t understand that Africa was a continent, rather than a series, a country just in itself.”
