I wish she would run for Vice President. Even though I know Biden wouldn't go after her (he's too nice a guy) I'm sure there are plenty of reporters with unanswered questions about the invasion of Iraq and her certainty that Saddam had WMD.
It seems being a forthright liar is a good thing for Republican voters.
Yes! Thanks for reminding me! Condi ignored THAT one from '98, too, along with all the other Al Qeda intel that Richard Clarke and George Tennant tried to warn her about.
But, I was referring to the cascade of hair-on-fire security alerts in the Spring-Summer of 2000 (which she and Bush wiped their butts with), including this one:
But Bush and Condi were too busy that Summer, outlawing stem cell reserch, giving kick-backs to campaign contributors (in the form of a 1.2 trillion dollar tax break to Bush's wealthy buds), and... clearing brush???

Bush started as president on January 20th, 2001.

Please, do run.
All that has been answered a gazillion times you're just willfully ignoring it.
Yes, we should not fail to realize how many black Americans can identify with Condoleezza Rice and would vote for her based on that identification. (Just for the record, that noise you heard in the background was my Sarcasm Alert going off!)

No matter how you meant it, I think it will become more or less a must to have at least one minority member on future tickets...
Don't count on Condi Rice bringing many Black American voters.
Pick her for another reason i.e. see's got great foreign policy experience etc. but picking her just because she's Black is about the WORST reason to pick her as a running mate.
Former Natl Sec Advisor and Sec 'o State, huh? Yea, she handled herself brilliantly alright. BTW...what was her part in those 2 failed wars?
My problem with her is not only her participation in the advocacy of the Iraq War it's to this very day she continues to defend the false, fabricated and misleading intelligence used to justify the war.
Any political candidate that takes her on also brings the whole Bush 43 administration justification for the Iraq War BACK into the national political conversation. Most Republicans would rather let that sleeping dog lie.
