So, in about 2-1/2 years, if the VP resigns for health reasons .......
And, if Bush has a problem at the same time, Condi takes over!
Madam Secretary Rice is such a dignified lady.
Thank God for her!
I read an article the other day, if I can find it, I'll post the link here. It said, statistically, a VP has a poor chance of winning the presidency.
WE all need to print these out and keep them handy - the communist's are now 'outted" - some whom we didn't suspect, but this was a 'tow the party (card carrying socialist/communist) line' vote. Now we know.
Kennedy is their leader - has been for decades. I've long been convinced he is only a puppet - and now we know who pulls his string - Soros. But even Soros is not the top of this den of devils. These are truly evil people, intent on ruling the world...and in cahoots with the UN towards that goal...
We are a very fortunate country to have a person of Dr. Rice's intelligence, learning, strength and grace as our Secretary of State.
Was George HW Bush the first VP elected since Martin Van Buren

That is a beautiful thing. And an amazing, proud milestone ... so so SOO unbelievably ignored by the media.
Congratulations to a woman who is class incarnate. From our segregated past ... to this. Beautiful, and just. Wonderful, beautiful, proud times ... for all.
And heck, she knows the real deal!! She could indeed be a great leader, if it comes to that -- tho who wants to think of such things (yeesh, not me!)
