Governor Palin last night electrified a crowd of over 2,500 and raised $1 million for Faulkner University’s scholarship fund in a speech delivered at the Renaissance Hotel in Montgomery, Alabama, according to widespread media reports.

According to Markeshia Ricks, a reporter for the Montgomery Advertiser, Gov. Palin’s speech centered on “faith, its role in her life, and how it shapes one into a person of value.” She described how she became a Christian at age 11, allowed God to direct her life, and how that opened doors for her.

Gov. Palin “challenged her audience to take their commitment to service to a higher level and became teary-eyed when talking about former University of Alabama football coach Gene Stallings and his son, John Mark Stallings,” Ricks reported. The university is naming its new football field after John Mark Stallings who was diagnosed with Down Syndrome and died at the age of 46, Ricks wrote.

    Are you sure you want comments here. You seem to have a problem with everything I say. I am a strong supporter/fan of Sarah Palin. I realize you are analyzing these comments using some kind of AI, but you have been reading me wrong. Lenny

      Leonwood,

      I do have a spam filter. Not sure if any of yours showed up in there. The filter is for the get rich quick, sex enhancement, weight loss junk that we all get. This comment and the other one are are the only two I've seen from you thus far.
