why did Candy Rice replace Colin Powell as the Head Of State?

Question

Hey Splat or is is spit! Every one else understood what I ment. You a retard or just like to wast everyon's time!

Answer 1

Quite probably because Powell was one of the only 'Doves' in the cabinet and Bush wanted a 'Hawk.' Wikipedia states that Powell announced he wouldn't stay after the end of Bush's first term anyway.

Answer 2

Condoleezza Rice was appointed Secretary of State after Colin Powell resigned at the beginning of Bush's second term, after a difficult time in the post where his advice/input was ignored by Rumsfeld and Cheney.

Answer 3

Colin Powell more or less resigned, after some public disagreement with the Bush administration's goals in Iraq and intelligence community in general.

Answer 4

Colin Powell resigned because he wasn't agreeing with the administration.

Answer 5

Mr. Powell began to see the direction that GWB and his gang were moving toward war. The UN address that the US claimed that WMD were in Iraq proved to be untrue and Powell has now distanced from GWB.

Answer 6

Colin Powell stepped down and/or retired and Bush appointed her.

Answer 7

Gee. And here I thought GWB was the head of state.

I think that Dr. Rice is the SECRETARY of State, the head of the State DEPARTMENT.

Answer 8

and most importantly that she was a CHEVRON employee. they even named an OIL TANKER after her!!!!!! most of the bush administration have worked for oil companies. i guess that explains most the past 6 years starting from invading afghanistan (caspian sea) to invading iraq.
