That's one of the main reasons I'd be willing to suspend my abject loathing of the Republican party in the context of Rice becoming the prez. If she was running against Hillary I'd be in a bit of a dilemma, because I also think it'd be a damn high time for a black prez too, so Rice'd be a nice two-in-one package, but I dislike the Dems a whole lot less as a party...

Anyway, either would hopefully help the Americans dislodge themselves from leftover Fifties ideas a bit.
