Sarah Palin is wrong about JFK, religion and politics [among other things]

Sarah Palin is wrong about John F. Kennedy, religion and politics:

Palin's argument seems to challenge a great American tradition, enshrined in the Constitution, stipulating that there be no religious test for public office. A careful reading of her book leads me to conclude that Palin wishes for precisely such a test. And she seems to think that she, and those who think like her, are qualified to judge who would pass and who would not.
