First of all, Condi Rice is not even remotely a dingbat, not only is she an incredibly intelligent woman, she is a classically trained musician. I think it is important to respect a woman of color who has become one of the most influential and inspirational citizens of our country. Regardless of how you feel about this administration, that assessment of yours about Ms. Rice couldn't be more "off". Aside from your misstatement of the precedence of succession, you are making a mistake about a wonderful, bright, woman.
