Friday, John McCain picked Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate. He described her as exactly what this country needs.

KSPR caught up with a local man who is a family friend of Palin. His parents used to go to church with her. He described her as a life-long NRA member with a traditional alaskan family.

He also said Palin can be a breath of fresh air for Ozarkers.

"She really has been able to appeal to a lot of people, primarily because of her ethics and you really do feel that you can trust her word and I think thta's where she brings a strength to that," said family friend, Reggie McElhannon.
