I suddenly had this question pop up in my head – what does Condi Rice actually think about Sarah Palin? What would she say if you asked her? Everybody talks about Obama and the racism he is facing, that his academic achievements and community engagements are discarded as hot air, but imagine being a black woman, busting your ass to go to a top school, putting together an impressive CV, and seeing this white [insert any familyfriendly insult you know], who barely managed to get a university degree, be nominated VP by your own party. I’d find that outrageous and insulting. On the other hand, maybe she is not a petty minded individual like me and sees the bigger issues at stake. Maybe she is just glad to see another woman liking the Iraq war as much as she does.
