Conde Rice is duty bound to accept the challenge. If for no other reason than to reward people like myself who put their lives on the line so that she would have this oppurtunity.

Gotta disagree with you on this, oh mighty one.
Neither of them is a professional pol ... and neither ever endured an election campaign.
Powell and Rice could never do this first time out ... they'd need a race over the track first. You can run for local office (maiden) ... state office (allowance) ... or even senator or governor in your home state (state-bred stakes) ... but not for president (G1) first time out.
