Condi for president?
A friend of mine, whom I've always know to be quite liberal, just blurted out that he would vote for Condi for president based on her race alone... He claimed that the good that would come from breaking the race barrier in the White House would far outweigh the bad that would be inflicted by four more years of bushco....

I think there has to be another way...

3. Vote for Condi based on her race alone? What's race got to do with it?
Does she even represent the aspirations of the black community, not to mention the rest of the American populace? This is such a wild and strange and senseless idea, I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the thought of it. (With apologies to your friend. He must really be in desperate straits.)

I would have crossed over to vote for her. ABB

8. Now, I could support her second cousin, Connie
Connie (Constance) Rice, Condi's second cousin, was being interviewed on AirAmer on Tuesday. She's fantastic! Advocate for justice for the poor, education for underprivileged kids, all that. Really great.

It was on Unfiltered on Tuesday morning. I don't know where there might be archives.

9. Funny. I know a freeper who said exactly the same thing.
I know that none of my liberal friends would ever vote for her.

Bush, Condi, and the rest of the administration need to face an investigation and criminal charges must be brought forward. Clinton was impeached for lying about a bl*wjob. Condi and the rest are lying about 9/11 and Iraq, resulting in the loss of hundreds of American soldiers and the killing of thousands of Iraqi civilians.
