The Wall Street Journal's Monical Langley reports:

Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin will meet with foreign leaders next week at the United Nations, a move to boost her foreign-policy credentials, a Republican strategist said.
Republican candidate John McCain plans to introduce the Alaska governor to heads of state at the opening of the U.N. General Assembly, although specific names weren’t yet firmed up. “The meetings will give her some exposure and experience with foreign leaders,” the strategist said. “It’s a great idea.”

Hope she was reading up over the weekend.

How about Germany?

Maybe she should give a speech in Germany as well. Then she'll officially have foreign policy experience. ;)
