WASHINGTON (AP) - Former Vice President Dick Cheney says he has not decided on a candidate to support for president in the next election, sidestepping a question on whether he would support Sarah Palin for the office.

Cheney declined to throw his support behind Palin when asked Sunday on ABC's "This Week" whether he would back the former Alaska governor as a presidential candidate.

Cheney said the person he supports is going to have to prove capable of being president. He did not say whether he thinks Palin is qualified.

3. I wish someone had the guts to charge him with war crimes and treason.

Having a trial to occupy him and his fetid family might shut them up once and for all.
