I’m Governor Sarah Palin, and I am delighted to welcome you to the 2008 Alaskan Independence Party Convention in the Golden Heart City, Fairbanks.
Your Party plans an important role in our state’s politics. I’ve always said that competition is so good, and that applies to political parties as well. I share your Party’s vision of upholding the constitution of our great state.
My administration remains focused on reigning in government growth, so individual liberty and opportunity can expand. I know you agree with that. We have a great promise to be a self-sufficient state, made up of the hardest working, most grateful Americans in our nation.
So as your convention gets underway, I hope that you all are inspired by remembering that all those years ago, it was in this same city that Alaska’s constitution was born. And it was founded on hope and trust and liberty and opportunity.
I carry that message of opportunity forward in my administration, as we continue to move our state ahead and create positive change.
So I say good luck on a successful and inspiring convention, keep up the good work, and God bless you.
