Nobody, and I mean NOBODY can act out Sarah Palin like Tina Fey.
Julianne moore?
+Olga Levin Lisa Ann?
+Olga Levin Julianne Moore acted better; Tina Fey parodied her better.
Wyatt Angle Yeah. But look nearly identical to Sarah Palin, that's pretty hard to do. All Tina Fey needs to do is do her hair up like Sarah Palin does, and just make sure she has the right kind of glasses.
aye, because both are losers
"I don't want a woman to be a president. I want to be a president. I just happen to be a woman."
Honestly, that is brilliant.
Yet, being a "woman" was the cornerstone of Hillary's campaign. In retrospect, this is propaganda.
Tiny Leaf yesyesyes!!!
Yay 2018 hindsight
actually hillary was very firm about not running on her gender against barack obama, around the time when this sketch was made, but when Bernie came around she changed her tone real fast. she was not about make that mistake twice lol
I B yup, turns out most people want equality.
"Anyone can be President"
They had no idea what would happen just a few years later...
KindaComedy I know.... the botch ran AGAIN.
I think everyone knew she'd run again (eight years, a bit more than a few). Alas, it didn't happened. She lost to Sarah Palin times 100
ikr
trump lol
Anyone can be President....EXCEPT HILLARY, lol.
Nearly a decade and a half later and "I can see Russia from my house" still makes me laugh. Props to Mike Shoemaker.
given what happened in the last 24 years watching this was as dumb as a politician could get...makes me nostalgic. It got worse. First there was a risk of everyone's religious aunt we never visit and avoid on holidays to become vice or even president...and then that uncle we don't know for sure is a mobster and causes a fight on Thanksgiving dinner having the nuclear codes...
What makes me laugh is your ignorance. You actually can see Russia from parts of Alaska..
@@lukeschultz6886 right. However, Palin cited Alaska's proximity to Russia, and the fact of a shared maritime border as part of her foreign policy experience. She looked like the amateur she is when she said that.
@@lukeschultz6886 😄What makes us ALL laugh is your everyday ignorance. That's all. ...we all just laugh and laugh and laugh at the ignorance of the average donald Chump voter. Everyday you say something uniquely stupid all while thinking you are ahead of the game...like today with this reply of yours. You are living Dunning-Krugers. 🙂
@R A R is that all you've got? One, you have no clue for whom I voted. Secondly, that line is worn out, tired, unproven. He's better on his worst day than Sarah is on her best day. Every idiotic thing Sarah said, is on record for posterity.
Everyone talks about Tina in this sketch, and she is fantastic, but I absolutely love Amy in this. Her expressions as Hilary were so spot on I thought she was hilarious. Their delivery of we don't agree on anything/everything was perfect. Love them both they are gems
🙄
Love when Amy rips out the board in her frustration!
Yeah both kill this!!!!!
Tina and Amy were at their best when together.
Amy was around 6 or 7 months pregnant during this, and she said the baby was doing backflips the entire time. Either the baby could feel her mothers acting intensity or it knew this would be a hit.
"I can see Russia from my house" still funny 7 years later
+Grace Kull just fyi "As to the question of whether one can actually see Russia from Alaska, Governor Palin was correct: such a view is possible from more than one site in that state
In the middle of the Bering Strait are two small, sparsely populated islands: Big Diomede, which sits in Russian territory, and Little Diomede, which is part of the United States. At their closest, these two islands are a little less than two and a half miles apart, which means that, on a clear day, you can definitely see one from the other."
+tutorialbs I actually did know that you can see Russia from certain points in Alaska. However, her house is far from any of those points.
Grace Kull
But she never actually said that. She said what I quoted. The media then put words in her mouth relentlessly and repeatedly. And so many news agencies did it, it simply became fact. It's kinda disgusting, really, slanderous beyond belief but she coudln't do anything about it because more people cared about laughing at her than te truth. And even though I despise Palin, I despise what the media did there even more.
+tutorialbs I never said that she said she could see it from her house. I just thought Tina feys impersonation was funny
Kinda like Al Gore never said he invented the internet, yet you hear that one all the time, dontchya?
"and your Tina Fey glasses!!" haha brilliant
+Heywood Yabloome you spelt intelligence wrong . not great when you pointing out someones stupidity
Nice inside joke. (since Tina Fey played Sarah Palin in this skit)
badgerman Uh....yeah😂
jojowhizz Ironic statement, considering your lack of proper grammar and punctuation.
I'm (finally) reading Tina Fey's autobiography and just got to the chapter where she talks about this skit. Had to put the book down for a minute so I could watch it.
Same 😂
If you're a fan of Tina Fey, absolutely. It was enjoyable, funny, and really makes you admire her for how she came to be successful.
What does she say about the skit?
I'm reading Amy's autobiography & also got to the part where she talks about this. Had no idea that she was actually heavily pregnant during this sketch. They hid it well.
+Ceri I see it now!
10 years later, and this is STILL comedic gold. Nothing is better than a classic Tina Fey, Amy Poehler team-up.
Hello 👋 how're you doing?
Idk, Amy and Maya Rudolph is close
This sketch is so well-known for the "I can see Russia from my house" line that it kinda gets overlooked how funny the barely bridled rage of Amy Poehler's Hillary is. That bitter giggle at 4:36 always cracks me up.
@@ruaraidh74 Yeah, and also Palin's original comment wasn't actually as stupid as the skit made it sound. But I think the line captures the essence of her vapid public persona so well. There's a reason it went viral as it did.
Sarah Palin actually referenced Alaska's proximity to Russia as having foreign policy experience. Her remarks were as bad as they sounded. She failed to elaborate on any kind of negotiations she was part of between the two countries.
Bitter giggle 😂! I love that so much, I’m stealing it!
We can ALL agree, Tina fey completely DESTROYED Sarah palin's career
I don't agree, Tiny Fey made her look more likable, Sarah Palin destroyed her own career by being an idiot and hypocrite.
Umm, technically Sarah Palin is / was paid millions to do nothing. Guess the joke is on us :(
Chinenye Igwe it affected the election
Chinenye Igwe Nope! Palin destroyed her own career.
I would generally agree with you, but there have been actual studies on the effect of Fey's impersonation that concluded that it reduced support for Palin's ticket by a few tenths of a percent. It's not much, but considering that it was just some comedian making fun of a politician, the fact that there was any measurable change is pretty impressive!
No matter your politics, this sketch had a huge effect on the 2008 election, making it one of the most influential of all time.
There is a precedent in SNL. It is believed that Gerald Ford lost because of Chevy Chase impersonating his lack of coordination and unintellectual speeches
Sarah Palin had the biggest effect! They knew nothing about her. They thought a woman on the ticket would help against a black man. McCain should have stuck with his first choice. Palin was the biggest blow to McCain.
Well that and Sarah Palin was actually an idiot.
People also think Palin actually said she could see Russia from her house because of this skit.
I know this is a weird thing to mention, especially on a 6 year old comment, but I love the clone high profile pic :)
By the way, russia can see her from their house too.
+Olga Bordian hell yeah, if by russia you mean chukchas who can barely speak any russian
Which is funny because Tina Fey said it and not Sarah Palin.
Olga Bordian Yeah I think we know.
Olga Bordian So, Russia has one big house now where everyone lives?😂😂
Olga Bordian ii
You know you did a great job impersonating Sarah Palin when millions of people search "Did Sarah Palin say 'I can see Russia from my house'"
It's gonna be on her Tom stone
this sketch had me in tears. these two have got to be some of the most talented comedians of the last few decades
3:48 when Tina Fey starts posing is when I always lose it
same here 😂😂😂
This is freaking legendary.
I love Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Together? Even better.
Fantastic comedy team!
One of the best comedy duos ever
Raise them one Maya Rudolph, the trifecta is complete.
Everyone always talks about how amazing Tina Fey is here - and she is. But Amy also totally nailed Hillary!
“I invite the media to grow a pair, and if you can’t I’ll lend you mine.” Completely and utterly brilliant. Love seeing these two best friends together kicking ass and being hilarious.
"I can see Russia from my house" Forever funny
Dennis Mayaka Actually I was not following :P
+Dennis Mayaka what;s the joke? Sorry, foreign human
+OakiLory Sarah Palin made a hilarious comment during her campaign that she could see Russia from her home in Alaska.
thank you!
So true
and 8 years later, still, still, still one of the funniest, politically on-point comedy sketches every done. I think Hillary 08 and Sarah 08 meeting Hillary 16 is pulling for a close 2nd.
Yes 😂😂
Someone is a fortune teller.
13 years later. still funny af. :D
"I can see Russia from my house!" ... ICONIC.
Tina and Amy will forever and always be the most hilarious duo. 👏🏾
The cocking the gun is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It's so dumb it just sends me every time.
What an awesome line: "I invite the media to grow a pair, and if you can't, I will lend you mine". It would be so awesome if Hillary actually did say something like this.
Hey how're you doing?
its so ironic watching this in 2016
Try 2018
Because in retrospect, Hillary has been shown to be a cold, calculating liar.
Try 2024
"Nooo....MINE!"
Never gets old XD
ဟုတ္တယ္ေလ မင္းက ဘာနားလည္လို႔လဲ စစ္အာဏာ ကရင္မအဖြားႀကီးေစာက္ဖုတ္အေပါက္ကို ေအာက္လမ္းအင္းနဲ႔ လူကိုနည္းအမ်ိဳးမ်ိဳးတကမာၻလုံးေယာက္က်ားေတြကို ကရင္မေယာက္က်ားလုပ္ခိုင္းေနတာ
သထားစမ္း
It's NEVER gonna be yours, Hilly! Deal with it. 😜
“And I was told I would be addressing you alone.” Lol
4:30 “Anyone.. Anyone!” Haunting words... 😅🤦🏼♂️
"I don't know what that is"
8 years later, this is still making me laugh. Thanks SNL. :-)
E Stew 8?
Pengo Schwortz it originally aired in 2008 and I remember watching it. So yes, it's been 8 years since I saw this. Clinton also referred to Obama as Senator Obama. :-)
Mysteries At Lochness Yea, I remember watching it when it first aired. Tina Fey was awesome! :)
boi. It's been 3 years
ZT Gaming If you're referring to this video then yes, it originally aired in 2008. So yes, 8 years.
"it just goes to show anyone can be president."
oh man they have no idea... o.o
Anyone can be president just ask Donald Trump☹
KAG 2020 libtards
ladykatie yeah they said a mouthful!!
@@laszlokiss483 lmao stop being ableist you fucking ignorant bastard
@@jack-5699 libtards are the real racists they were the slave holders they were the ones that succeed from the union and are trying too again funny how history repeats itself isnt it fuck off you america hating POS
OMG it's been 15 years. This sketch is STILL so epic!
Both amazing and I know Tina Fey gets (and should get) so much praise for her genius Palin impression but in this skit, Amy is just incredible.
"Literally anybody can be president". Donald Trump has proven this once again.
+Epi Chicken Obama proved that one.
Donald Trump proved it. At least Obama was a Senator and worked hard for it.
+al mccarter AMEN
Donald trump was never president derp derp!
Not really. First, he hasn't become president yet. Second, I think the fact that he's worth billions of dollars, was alredy a household name and had been on his own TV show might have had some slight influence there. If you call that "anyone", then you're an idiot. Since not just "anyone' has those "credentials", obviously your statement is false (same goes for all the other damned politicians that say stupid things like "anyone can be president in the US", because it's completely false, other than in the legal sense). So all Trump has proven is that a very rich man can win enough political and popular support to have a chance of getting into the White House, even without using the tactics and rhetoric usually employed by politicians. Sure I don 't believe most of what Trump says, he contradicts himself and makes racist statements to appeal to the baser part of the population, but I think he's telling just as much truth as any one of the other slimy fuckers is, just not following the "accepted line" of bullshit like they usually do. It's just another brand of bullshit.
Anyone watching in 2016?
Jaffa T same lol
You are
Ľøŕď Šâťáņ Jőņëş right
2017
2019
It's so crazy - this sketch is the most famous comedy skit of the 2000s.
10 years later and I am still coming back to this skit. So great. Truly a classic.
"Anyone can be president" Aged like milk and cheese at the same time.
Still good to eat 12 years later.
Tina Fey makes almost as funny a Sarah Palin as Sarah Palin
almost
'I'm just one heartbeat away from being president of the United States'
I don't think the audience really got that one lol
There was one guy who really enjoyed it
Audaxi - It is a direct quote from this clip @4:25.
original line was "I'm just one weird mole away from being president" before they changed it
No, it's just that this phrase was used often during the election (by pundits, etc), so it wasn't really funny so much as an oft repeated fact. They just didn't put enough of a twist on it here for people to laugh hysterically at it or something.
I got it, I laughed, and now I feel bad. I'm watching this August 30th 2018.
R.I.P. Senator McCain, I will forever resent you for giving the world Sarah Palin, but there is no denying you have been a great American.
One of the greatest sketches on SNL!
"In conclusion, I invite the media to grow a pair. And if you can't, I will lend you mine." LOL
Probably the best SNL sketch ever. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are legendary. Especially love how they managed to make fun of both candidates, instead of just going after Sarah Palin who was an exceptionally easy target.
I love Kate Mincion but Amy Pohler is always an amazing Hilary Clinton
Alisha marie Kate is more hilarious tho.
Ani0227
Alisha marie I feel like Amy is Hillary during this campaign, Kate is the inner 🤔
Ani0227 I like it like that tho, that is what makes the show more live. Kate's presence & energy brings the show up.
Ani0227 i love both but kate definitely takes the cake
“I invite the media to grow a pair. And if you can’t, I will lend you mine.” Fantastic
The most underrated line in this skit.
One of my all time favorite sketches.
I’m back here years later in 2024, and this is still comedy fire🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂😂 Legend!💯
Someone stick this in a time capsule because this is one of the all-time BEST SNL skits EVER! =)
"Anyone can be president" "All you have to do is want it" I have a feeling that they're regretting planting that idea in Trump's head 3 years ago... XD
Danny Neyman as much as I adore these two artists and this skit, I asked myself the same question. 😱. I guess I'm just glad I wasn't alone. I'd hate for them to feel in any way, shape, or form bad about the present day...🙁
actually from where she lived she could see Russia....do some research libtard.
OMG. Hilarious that you think the problem is that she might be able to actually see Russia. They weren't referring to the truth or falsehood of the statement. They were referring to the stupidity of thinking that being able to see Russia somehow qualifies a person on foreign policy.
Please understand I am explaining this to you. Because you missed it. All the libtards got it. And you didn't.
Danny Neyman Damn them WHY
+Tom Yazel Yes and no. There's an island considered to be part of Alaska way in the ocean from which you can kinda see Russia, but no, Palin probably can't actually see Russia from her house. That's the joke.
Still one of my all time favorite skits.
In Russia, Palin does not see us from her house, we see her from our house!
glory greatest country.
🇺🇸ooopp
Lmao 😂
Yachov
Classic!
Brilliant
That pauze and then the "I CANNOT!" is so funny
3:11 That forced smile and "I cannot" - Hillary Clinton is the female Homelander.
all politics aside, you have to admit this was a brilliant satire and a biting commentary on the political none since we see everyday. Politics really is a circus.
Politics is a circus
and a crime
at the same time.!
"And stop saying i have cankles" " Don't refer to me as a milf" lmfao..These two are hilarious!!
"I googled what it meant and I don't like it"
Still absolute gold.
To be fair, Hilary did live in the White House for eight years xD
Eight years more would have done everyone good, even if about half of the population wouldn't admit to it. 1992-2000 was the last Pax Americana.
Yeah, but her husband was screwing someone else
@@PoochNYC why would you even write that?
Is IT her fault that her husband screwed everything that moved? Such a sexist comment
Im not Republican or Democratic but as a independent I can say the Clintons especially Bill Clinton left a surplus to the American economy!
The joke about Sarah Palin being president from just a heart beat away had me rolling.
one of the most iconic sketches in SNL history. the writing is just unbelievable!
Seen this so many times now. One of the funniest and truest SNL skits ever. Love Tina and Amy.
The debate one was funny too. Can’t remember who played Joe Biden but obviously Tina Fey was in it and it was hosted by Queen Latifah.
I'm currently reading Tina's book. The story of everything that happened the day she did this skit is amazing. I have always loved both of these ladies.
Astonishingly funny. I have watched this sketch over and over and laugh like a drain every time. utter brilliance
and to think just 2 years ago I was a small town mayor of Alaska's crystal meth capital laugh out loud!
That was excellent on so many levels
Anyone can become president. ANYONE! This line has turned into prophecy.
We have Biden as proof of stupidity
0:44-0:47 The thing I really like about that scene is that you don’t have majority of people clapping for either McCain or Obama really shows how far we come when it came to politics
almost eight years later and this is still amazing.
Tina Fey's Sarah Palin was everything. XD
Amy really captures Hillary in this and her "is she weird or just crazy" thing
This skit never gets old!
my history teacher showed us this in class and we couldn't stop laughing
Still funny..
They killed me very times I see them together.
ikr
Looking back on this holy shit how they were right... "Anyone can be president" We're seeing it right now... God help us all.
was going to comment just that!
James Salvatore u didn't notice that when people voted for bush ?
James Salvatore Scary maaan 💯💯 lol
Now December 2020 and it seems ANYONE can be President for a single term. People caught on to the con man Trump...at least the smart ones did.
They nailed this. You don’t get such nuance from many SNL sketches anymore.
Why do you think that is? What changed? (not disagreeing with you btw )
@@1940semochild There might be a lack of writing talent, or a lack of focus on the good writing talent. I think there is a lot of good current cast members, but I think the majority of the issues arise from the sketch ideas. More often than not they are trite or surface level. A good host like Oscar Isaac can elevate a bad sketch, but sometimes it's too glaringly bad. please don't destroy are usually on the money with the time and budget they're given. They're equal to if not better than thelonelyisland.
@@henrydeluxe4051 Thanks for the insight!
I've watched this a THOUSAND TIMES and it's STILL freakin HILARIOUS 😆
Is that Tina fey! Wow I really thought it was Sarah palin
Don't we all...
CN What I'm Saiyan? Tina does Palin better than the real one
SNL drastically fell off when these two left
They moved on to do bigger things though
and Kristen Wigg
+mrbostonian93 kate mckinnon does a better Hillary Clinton than Amy Poheler
+mrbostonian93 handsome
very true.
Ahhh nostalgia when politics was just fun. Now these words have true weight: "I invite the media to grow a pair"
rare instance of a political sketch that aged extremely well
That joke about anyone can be president goes way funnier after the 2016 election
Hits so hard it almost hurts 🥲
“...and your Tina Fey glasses...” 😂😂😂
written by seth meyers, performed by tina and amy. the dream team
One of my fave sketches of all time. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are amazing together!
Hi 👋how are you doing?
Moral of the story, "Anyone can be president just as long as they're not qualified".
" ... anyone ..." so heartbreakingly true.
It's sketches like this that make me stick by SNL even when it sucks
Watching this now, I completely but sadly agree. Literally anyone can become President
Isaac Silva how does it feel to be a parakeet of the mainstream media
I'm an American citizen and I can't.
John Oliver
I thought this was a recent skit for that line!
It feels prophetic
"and I was told I would be addressing you alone" LMAO
These two are a great team!! Each one holds her own by doing her own thing without trying to outshine the other, and that's part and parcel of a good teammate!!
What makes the Sarah palin skits so funny is that most of them are written with the exact words she has used.
Poehlers forehead 😂😂
"anyone can be president" *motions to Donald Trump*
wizkida981015 better than the bitch.
Haha! All I keep hearing is Metallica's "Sad but True", play over and over in my head right now!👀
And I can Russia from my house. 1:25 15 years later.
Can what?
Amy….(perfect pause)…I CANNOT!
4:37 Hillary is still laughing today, poor woman
'Anyone can be president, anyone!'
They had no fucking idea.
