In her interview with Katie Couric, Sarah Palin gave two specific examples of her foreign policy experience with respect to Alaska's proximity to Russia. The second - defending the nation from a Putin aerial attack - has been widely discussed.

But the first example, an almost throwaway line about "trade negotiations with Russia," has gone pretty much unnoticed. The problem is, just as with many other things coming from the McCain/Palin campaign, instead of being a justification for her experience, it actually exposes her dangerous unfamiliarity with foreign policy issues.
