Good evening Gordon!

Interesting post - thanks. I hope people start waking up before it's too
late.
I didn't write that post, only forwarded it on for comment as such.
On the other hand, I did write specifically to Douglas Friedman,
just earlier tonight, on my opinion to what the 'Liberal Press'
might likely ignore, particularly on what kind of regime the
American people might elect in 2008. This is a game that has
been going on in this country for several decades!
What I wrote earlier about Condi Rice has a lot of overtones, and
perhaps even some reservations. She might actually do America a
lot of good if she were elected. But in the event that she might
be elected, I doubt seriously that anything would change in terms
of the fundamental character of the globalization of US foreign
policy, and that was the issue in which I was addressing.
In terms of settling decades of rather divisive racial conflict
in America, I think Condi would be a real asset socially if she
were elected. It would dispel and take the wind out of the sails
of racial division in this country. First, it would demonstrate
that not only a woman, but a black woman, could achieve the
highest office in the land. And, if it were ONLY that, I might
throw a lot of support in her direction.
Unfortunately, there is a lot more to what's going on these days
than racial or ethnic division. As I understand it anyway, the
racial and ethnic divisions in America today are becoming less
and less of an issue as time goes on. I am grateful that this is
happening if the demographic analysis suggests this is indeed
happening. Such has to happen in this country or we will
eventually self-destruct ourselves in our own vices of hate and
distrust.
My problem with Condi Rice is that she is really a very brilliant
woman who is deeply committed to the ideal of globalism and
continuing the status quo, that has, in retrospect, which has led
to the current disaster in US foreign policy. And, in which
case, Hillary Clinton is not honestly going in a direction
counter to that anyway, aside from her carefully orchestrated
effort to emerge as a 'moderate' Democrat.
I'll have to reserve some of my judgment on whatever happens over
the course of the next couple of years and see how the 2008
Presidential election shapes up during the 2008 Primary season.
As of now, Hillary Clinton certainly appears to be looming on the
horizon, and the GOP will have to come up with someone,
somewhere, who can become electable! The book I alluded to in my
conversation with Doug Friedman, posits Condi Rice as the ONLY
GOP alternative that can defeat Hillary Clinton.
