Sarah Palin's interview with Charlie Gibson included this exchange:
"Have you ever met a foreign head of state?"
"I have not, and I think if you go back in history and if you ask that question of many vice presidents, they may have the same answer that I just gave you."
It's good of ABCNews to provide an article on the fact that she's wrong, going back as far as Walter Mondale.
I don't know about Gerald Ford, but I suspect that this means the last VP who didn't have this sort of foreign experience was Spiro Agnew, governor of a small state for two years when he was elected. Of course, Agnew was forced to resign the vice presidency while under investigation of criminal charges.
Great company, Sarah!

She's really good at that fourth-grade type of defense: "Neither did he!" "Are too!" et al. Or ibid. Ask Palin, I am quite sure she is up on Latin footnote terminology.
