Bristol Palin is not the most articulate teenager I've seen, but she seems like a pretty sweet girl doing her best. In this Greta Van Susteren interview (video), Bristol, now 18 and engaged, says she'd like to be an advocate for preventing teen pregnancy.
Much has been made of the seemingly memorized remarks about concentrating on her education, about her boyfriend Levi, and especially about her admitting that abstinence is not realistic -- but really, we already knew all that stuff. The interesting part, I think, is this sentiment:
"I think everyone should just wait ten years."
She must have said it six times in the interview, looking rather rueful. If we can make any good of this whole Palin mess, can we just send Bristol from school to school teaching kids to put off the babymaking?
