Wouldn't Condolezza Rice make a great President ?

I'd say absolutely yes.  But there are still some prejudicial people and, well, she is black.

Condi Rice would make Hillary look like the dummy everyone wants to think GW is; she's a highly intelligent woman.  I hope she runs for VP behind Guiliani and they would beat Hillary and whoever.

Sure is a Lame Duck isn't she! I wouldn't even know that Bush was married, she is a ghost isn't she, and I totally agree with you on that thought. Laura isn't any Elenore Roosevelt, or even Betty Ford, and as far as Hillary Clinton, she followed in Elenore Roosevelt's shoes and stayed with the fight for freedom. I think Hillary Clinton will make a good President just like her husband. America would get a double bonus too with Bill Clinton being Hillary's adviser.

Could happen but Im not sure if the American public is ready as of yet, but you never know, she could pull it off.  Id say she has he greatest chance out of all of becoming the first Woman President.

I like Condi Rice but I don't know if she could survive the Republican primary. She is Pro-choice, but not stridently so, but many of the Christian Right would not accept her because of that. If she could somehow come up with rhetoric which would downlplay the fact that she is pro-choice (or have a change of heart like the first Bush) then she would have a great chance.\n\nI for one, don't think being black or a woman would be an impediment to her campaign.\n\nI think a conservative black person would have a much better chance of winning than a liberal one(such as Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton.)

Hillary! Rice lies as fast as she talks. Anything the president says she agrees with. We need someone who has a mind of their own.

I am a liberal, and I believe that Condoleeza Rice is doing a much better job at the State Department than her predecessor, and would make a fine Republican candidate--much better, much more qualified than our current President.  I also think that Hillary Clinton would make a much better President than our current one, and I would support her for President, no matter who sha ran against, unless the Republican party nominated someone like Mayor Bloomberg or the very respectable Senator Arlen Specter, which will never happen.  But neither Clinton nor Rice holds a candle to other women luminaries out there who have not a chance to be President.\n\nAs for the canard that women do not make good leaders, I think it is one of those moronic, essentialist things that people keep parroting simply because it is the socially acceptable way of expressing sexist prejudice.  In fact, we have very little empirical evidence to evaluate such a claim, and the little evidence we have actually refutes that hypothesis.

She is great for what she does.  I do not think she has the statesmanship to become a president.\n\nPeople should remember, to be a president, you need to be some sort of statesman. (PC side, Statesperson)\n\nAll good presidents are statesmen.  No president that has been just a great politician has ever made it into the ranks as a great president.  No matter how much some of the people liked him.

I totally agree with you. Oprah would be a great president. She's nice to everyone and she's not biased. She's just a great woman and will show other nations that we care.

Speaking from your point of view, it would be an interesting demographic.  She would certainly capture the great majority of the conservative vote.  Those who were sexist or racist (who can be found in either political party) would probably just not vote, instead of voting liberal.  I would imagine she would also capture some of the vote from people who would like to see a woman be President, and a portion of people who would like to see a racial minority as president.  In addition, she is very well spoken, was a child prodigy, and comes from Colorado, so would be a darling of the West.  I imagine, because of the demographics, she would be the favorite to win.  A very interesting scenerio would be Condy Rice vs. Hillary Clinton-in that case, the fact that both candidates were women would take that advantage (or disadvantage, depending on how deeply entrenched sexism is) away.  Then it would be a straight-up contest against two very powerful, brilliant, and politically astute women, from opposite ends of the spectrum.  As it is, there is essentially a 50/50 split between conservatives and liberals, so it would come down to which could appeal to the middle-of-the-road voter better.  I think Clinton is likely closer to center than Rice is, but Rice would have a fairly large bloc of minority voters on her side- I bet it would be a fascinating campaign!

That would be so great!!  But the canidate would have to stay away from selling out.  We have so many that make it in politics because of our voting power, but then get tripped up with all the hoopla surrounding them.  Henry Cisneros comes to mind, in this instance, he forgot where he came from.  If you watched the Alma Awards the president of La Raza, a Latina, was so well spoken and her agenda sounded refreshing for a change. She would be a prime canidate, but I don't know her name!!? :(  I think it is foolish to believe white old men are the only ones capable of running our country.  I'm prepping my son for the great opportunity to become President of the United States, So Watch out America, He's Laaaaaaatino! :  )

Sure. Polls have shown that Condoleeza Rice has a lot of support.\n\nI was shocked that Al Sharpton didn't do better in the primary.

Absolutely! And he will be viewed as one of the best Presidents ever. He has the courage of his convictions and is not swayed by public opinion as his predecessor was.

If they had a stellar personal record of accomplishments and were a spellbinding speaker, I suppose it's possible. \n\nWouldn't it be nice to see a candidate like that!

Condolezza Rice.  She is touch with mainstream america.  She hasn't sold herself out to radical organizations that have an agenda.  She believes in herself and has faith in God and good people.  She does what she says.  She can stand up for herself.  She doesn't waffle to get poll numbers.  She has come from a small town in a Alabama to one of the highest positions in american goverment without riding the coattails of disgraced, sex deprived political husband.  Need i say more?!

No, Condoleeza Rice is a robot that was created after Good Times went off the air. She was, however, on Powerpuff Girls.

I hope we do eventually...I'd vote for Dr. Rice in a HEARTBEAT.  I think she's a brilliant woman.  If Collin Powell had run for that or for president i'd vote for him to.  I think he's one of the most honorable men there is.
