Rice was never qualified to be national security advisor. That was one of the worst mistakes Bush could have made and it contributed to 9-11 happening. Rice was totally derelict in her duties. She may be popular because she's a good role model for black woman, but that's where it ends. She has also failed as a Secretary Of State to make a single meaningful agreement. Dole is a smart lady but she got her job because of her last name. As a senator I can't remember a single note-worthy or helpful thing she has accomplished. Feinstein is extremely qualified but she isn't running. She has been mentioned as a possible VP choice in past elections. But of course she has the obviously Jewish last name which is a drawback in the heartland, on top of her being a woman. So far, every single Prez and VP has been a white male. Our national consciousness has something to do with that. We are not a matriarchal society. And we are a fairly racist culture as well. Hillary is much more accomplished and qualified, but there's just something about her that bugs me, and I think most people share that feeling. I'm not against her, I support her as a senator, I just don't want her to run for president. In short, she is no Bill Clinton, though she could make a halfway decent president I guess. However, I predict that if she runs she will fail.
