14. Thanks, PBS!!
Yes, she seems to enjoy it. But every time I see her on these trips I can't help but think what an awesome president she would be. I hope she runs again.

17. Yeah, she likes to dance.
She got down with the rest of them. Imagine Condi dancing like that? I doubt it, she always came off as being so stiff.

Her hair looks is nice a bit longer.
