Rice Courting VP Nomination


I first heard on FOX News yesterday that Condi Rice may be looking to coax a VP nomination out of McCain. Then I ran into an April 6 post of an ABC blog called Political Radar which reports Secretary Rice is ACTIVELY seeking the Republican nomination for Vice President.

Here are my brief thoughts on that prospect.

The Condi Rice that was GW’s National Security Advisor was a person I saw with admiral skill and eloquence. I toyed with the concept of a Black Female Republican Presidential nomination of that Condi Rice. I even thought of it more when her National Security Advisor skills found her moving upward to Secretary of State.

Then there is the Secretary of State Condi Rice.

Since becoming head of the State Department Rice seems to have been overwhelmed by State Department bureaucrats that fought the Bush Doctrine from its inception as a concept to promote America’s National Interests.

If it was not for a strong Israel lobby these old dog bureaucrats view of America’s National Interests lay in placating Arab nations that are friendlier (not necessarily friendly) to America at the expense of the Middle East’s only successful Western Style Democratic Nation – Israel.

Since Rice has become Secretary of State the Global War on Terror only exists in Iraq and Afghanistan even though ALL of the PLO and Hamas in particular have committed acts of aggression against America.

Divorcing the Palestinian Terrorists from the Global War on Terror has moved the Bush Administration into forcing the issue of a Two-State solution of the existence to the Land of Israel and a sovereign nation of Palestine. This drive to force the existence of Palestine is occurring even though the concerted goal of Palestinian Terrorists is the elimination of Israel as a nation with the giddy dream of wiping Jews out in the Middle East.

Secretary Rice’s push for a Two-State solution indirectly aid’s the Palestinian goal of the destruction of Israel.

So do I think Condi Rice should be a VP consideration for McCain? NO.

I agree with fuzzys dad and anonymous that Rice would not help McCain on the Republican ticket.

I have come across some info from a Rice spokesman. A rough paraphrase goes like this: How many ways can Rice say no, she is not running for National Office.

So that the "definitely courting" I read into a rumor at best and a Republican feeler at worst.
