A "little factually off" is kinda sorta a problem when you want to be President of the United States. Understanding that South Korea is our ally and North Korea is the bad guy is a start.
I would agree that Palin has shown a lack of deep understanding of some foreign affairs issues. However, I am pretty sure that she knows the difference between N and S Korea.
On the same note, Obama has tremendous book knowledge, but his intellectual instincts have led him to a position of hesitation and weakness. The result is N Korean agression and Iranian nuclear buildup. Carter, a nuclear physicist, led to the Russian invasion of Afghanistan and the replacement of the Shah with the Ayatollas.
I'll take a President with the metaphorical testosterone, over intellectualism.
To paraphrase Bill Buckley, I'd rather be governed by the first thousand names in the Boston phone book than the faculty of Yale.
