Sarah Palin’s Vegan Pen Pal

February 5, 2010

A University of Waterloo history professor, Andrew Hunt, is sending Sarah Palin a one thousand word letter about why she ought to go vegan. And he’ll follow that up with a new letter each week for an entire year. I am not making this up.

This project is too bizarre to contemplate. I’d put the odds of success at slightly lower than a small team of fourth graders staging a successful moon landing.

And, to indulge in crazytalk for a moment, suppose she actually went vegan. Would it be a win for the animals if the world’s best known vegan was Sarah Palin?

I think the basis of effective outreach is to realize that, since our time is limited, we’ve got to target the people and groups most likely to make substantive changes. Get a load of this photo. Enough said. (Via SlashFood.) Link.
