I'd love Condi Rice as VP, but I know it isn't going to happen due to her stance on several social issues.
What do you love about her? Her vote for Obama?
As quoted by George Will in "The GOP of Powell and Rice",
Jewish World Review, August 7, 2000:
In a pleasantly meandering conversation over lunch in San Francisco last summer, Condoleezza Rice, then still provost of Stanford but already unofficially what she now is officially, George W. Bush's senior foreign policy adviser, was asked her thoughts about gun control. "I am," she answered crisply, "a Second Amendment absolutist." Growing up in Birmingham, Ala., in the early 1960s, when racial tensions rose, there were, she said, occasions when the black community had to exercise its right to bear arms in self-defense, becoming, if you will, a well-regulated militia.
