Nerf-Coated World

44

Rumor has it, George W. has a nickname for Condoleeza Rice: 44.

Which, frankly, is kind of a cool thought. I have no idea whether Rice would even make a good president. But if the Republicans nominate Rice as the first woman -- and more, the first black -- presidential candidate, oh, the epileptic shock it would cause!

Eh, they'd just respond by saying that Rice isn't really black. Which would be funny for them to try to explain. Heck, it might even instigate some debate on whether Democratic policies (The Great Society, The War on Poverty) have actually helped black people in this country. Who knows. But it should be interesting at any rate.

Hat-tip to Ace.
