I saw Condeleezza Rice speak this morning at school. Unfortunately, I couldn't get any pictures because the Secret Service sniped the camera I was trying to sneak in. But, it's pretty clear that she's a genius. She was incredibly knowledgeable on a very wide range of foreign affairs topics (as you would expect the Secretary of State to be, I guess), and extremely well spoken. I was especially impressed with how she answered the submitted student questions off-cue after the speech. She had a good, straight-talk answer to "what can we do to fix the image of the U.S. in the eyes of countries that don't agree with what we're doing in the world?"
A lot of the speech was over my head, since it was sponsored by the School of Foreign Service and thus involved a lot of international development and global policy stuff, but it was worthwhile nonetheless.
On to Ron Paul tomorrow...
