Obama released the following statement on Rice's withdrawal:
Today, I spoke to Ambassador Susan Rice, and accepted her decision to remove
her name from consideration for Secretary of State. For two decades, Susan
has proven to be an extraordinarily capable, patriotic, and passionate
public servant. As my Ambassador to the United Nations, she plays an
indispensable role in advancing Americas interests. Already, she has
secured international support for sanctions against Iran and North Korea,
worked to protect the people of Libya, helped achieve an independent South
Sudan, stood up for Israels security and legitimacy, and served as an
advocate for UN reform and the human rights of all people. I am grateful
that Susan will continue to serve as our Ambassador at the United Nations
and a key member of my cabinet and national security team, carrying her work
forward on all of these and other issues. I have every confidence that Susan
has limitless capability to serve our country now and in the years to come,
and know that I will continue to rely on her as an advisor and friend. While
I deeply regret the unfair and misleading attacks on Susan Rice in recent
weeks, her decision demonstrates the strength of her character, and an
admirable commitment to rise above the politics of the moment to put our
national interests first. The American people can be proud to have a public
servant of her caliber and character representing our country.

Gook;
Dr. Rice had not even been nominated!
She was merely being considered as the likely candidate to replace Hilary
Clinton. So, this morning, she told the president to drop her name from his
list of potential candidates for Secretary of State.
