You mean when Ronald Reagan played supporting actor to a monkey (actually a chimpanzee) who would have been a better president than he was?

It's time for a woman to be president. It's time for a person of color to be president. It's time for a president who's not a moron. Of course, on policy and demeanor and honesty, Barak Obama is my first choice. But my second choice is Condoleezza Rice. Sure, she's a complete toady under Bush. But I'd give her the benefit of the doubt if she were in the top position. And just as it took a reactionary to open relations with China, maybe it will take the Republicans to elect an African-American woman to the presidency.

Im absolutely shocked .My guess is that Rice has had more influence with Republican policy than Bush has.

Daniel, Daniel, Daniel- I usually have the utmost respect for your wisdom and insightful observations. But Condoleezza Rice? Are you serious? Rice did her doctorate dissertation on the Soviet Union, and like Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney, her political viewpoint is anchored in that era. Hence she has no understanding whatsoever on how to best deal with terrorism and the current world crises. And while her personal story is compelling, her shoe shopping trip in New York while New Orleans was drowning convinced me that she has come so far from those days that she has lost whatever compassion she had. And don't forget her warning about how the smoking gun would come in the form of a mushroom cloud. Now she very well might be supressing contrary views from the Bush administration- but do we want a "toady" as the leader of the free world?

I would vote for Joe Lieberman (who I can't stand) before I'd vote for Rice. That being said, I would LOVE for her to get the Republican nomination. Can you imagine Rice vs. Clinton or Rice vs. Obama? The poor Neocons' heads would explode!

Hmmm.

Fred Thompson/Condolezza Rice vs...Hillary Clinton/Barack Obama

Now that would be a Horserace.

Do you actually agree with her on any political issues or is your choice based solely on the fact that she is a woman of African American descent?

The latter.

Anyway, it's just a thought.

We didn't mean to gang up on you.
We were only concerned that perhaps you banged your head or something.

No.

Absolutely not.

Not because she's a woman.

Not because she's black.

Not just because she's a Republican.

But because she's a BUSH Republican.

Haven't the last two terms taught you anything?

Who said vote for Gore? I said don't vote for Rice.

Ah, the personal attack in lieu of any supporting facts. Spoken like a true Republican.
