Choosing Rice would be a huge sign to me that leadership counts, especially when shattered global relationships need someone strong to help rebuild trust and credibility.
In my mind, Susan Rice is the best choice. Not only for our country, but for other countries too who have been betrayed by current admin in DC.
And thanks to both Cin and Bulldog for adding toward this particular issue, the Vice Presidential choice.
Has anyone started a new thread for talk about the up coming election and issues that are vitally important to talk about?
If either of you start one, I will gladly participate.

I agree with you Kätzchen. For a long time my favorite pick was Kamala Harris. I still think she would be a good choice, but Susan Rice hands down has the most experience working in the White House and is best qualified, has a very good working relationship with Biden (they actually worked on things together, not just in the same administration), and as you say she has a lot of international experience.
Also, if I were asked who is the first person I would want in the situation room in a crisis - no matter what their position was - I would choose Susan Rice hands down.
The only thing we will have to hear the Repugs yelling about how she misled the country about Benghazi. Ugh, of course, it isn't true, but we are likely to hear it. I don't think it would sink his candidacy though.
I'm sure he will get the pick right. He knows all about the vetting process and what it takes to be a good VP.
