Think about Colin and Condy Pres and VP.

Condi is well traveled and thought of and it would depend on her stand on things. Right now, she is pretty much saying what the Bush administration believes in, and because of that, we really don't have a good read on her.

She is smart and well thought of around the world, so we shall wait and see what happens. I don't understand why Powell didn't throw his hat into the ring or Stormin Norman. All three would make good leaders.

Agreeing with Ray, Dr. Rice has in recent years seemed more worn down and frustrated with things than she has in the past. Before, she was a solid, strong African American female figure, stable in speeches and confident in her approach. That seems to have changed this past year.

I don't believe she would choose to enter political office, at least not that level, anytime soon. While I think the climate is warming to an African American and female representative at that level, her distinction at both of those, along with her Bush level of support has waned on voters. Her approval ratings (I can't find anything within the last 7 months) have fallen from the mid 50% to the mid 40%'s from 2005 to April of 2007.

How will things change by 2016? We really don't know, but I'm pretty sure if a Democrat wins in 2008, and the country has dissatisfaction with that candidate over that 8 year period (let's face it, you have to be horrible as a President these days to lose a second term), she could be in position for a solid running.

It won't happen, regardless of how Iraq turns out, anyone involved in the initial decision to go in is going to be stained for life. On top of that, while a very intellegent person, she has not been terribly effective at running the State Department. She would get the Rudy treatment in the Republican Primaries, everyone would be behind her until they found out that she is a social moderate, then she would lose too much support to make it to the end.

I would look for Kay Hutchinson to be the next serious female candidate, if that's what you are looking for. Smart lady, well qualified, and she has the "right" veiws for the most part.

She probably won't run for president. Regrettably, the GOP most likely wouldn't let a black female moderate presbyterian past the primaries. This may change in 4-8 years though. Also, her links to the Oil industry, in light of her being a key-player in the pro-war Bush administration, will most likely kill her in a national election. I also recall her saying that she isn't interested in being president.

So I'm saying that she will most likely not become a presidential canidate. Too much is stacked against her.

so some distance confident she is, i could help her. on the different hand, she's enjoying at politics somewhat too lots, so interior the top we are going to see. She's nicely qualified for it, she headed a committee that further down the berlin wall, grew to become stanford around jointly as she grew to become into there, and became a secretary of state (techniques you she is doing greater suitable than albright). tell me what clinton's achieved different than no longer something?

I would vote for her and I was hoping she would run in 2008. I don't care what race or gender someone is, I look for a person I think I can trust who believes mostly what I believe and who really loves America and not just their own power.

I don't think she would ever get a decent amount of support. I would never vote for her. To me, she just doesn't come across as a very intelligent person. She sure as Heck doesn't deserve to be leading the free world now, 2012, 2016, or anytime.

I dont ever see her making that run. She is clearly more intelligent than to expose herself to such abuse. The current political / media method of running a slaughter house and the surviver gets to be prez prevents any person with real qualifications from getting involved.

No reason why she should be counted out of 2008, or even as a VP for a Dem or Rep. She is working for Bush, and gets a lot of criticism for it, but she is good at what she does.
