v October 5, 2011
Wasilla, Alaska
After much prayer and serious consideration, I have decided that I will not be seeking the 2012
GOP nomination for President of the United States. As always, my family comes first and
obviously Todd and I put
great consideration into family life before making this decision. When
we serve, we devote ourselves to God, family and country. My decision maintains this order.
My decision is based upon a review of what common sense
Conservatives and Independents have
accomplished, especially over the last year. I believe that at this time I can be more effective in a
decisive role to help elect other true public servants to office
–
from the nation’s governors to
Congressional seats
and the Presidency. We need to continue to actively and aggressively help
those who will stop the “fundamental transformation” of our nation and instead seek the
restoration of our greatness, our goodness and our constitutional republic based on the rule of law.
From the bottom of my heart I thank those who have supported me and defended my record
throughout the years, and encouraged me to run for President. Know that by working together
