The article does a great job of highlighting why Condi is an ideal choice, though inadvertently presents the problem that minorities pursuing power positions can never seem to escape: that all anyone notices is that they’re not white males. Can’t we just give her the hypothetical vote because she’s the best fit for the job, and not because she’s the best female for the job? So..Hillary Clinton shoujld not be the next POTUS because, despite extensive credentials, it seems she can't "be real" or "have a beer" with the average American. But the exceptional Condoleeza Rice can. And if we want a woman for the job, at the very least a VP, it's got to be Condi.
