2. I caught this article too, and I think it should concern environmentalists.

She will have to answer for her investments relating to the pipeline, but my guess is she will temporarily rid herself of them, while serving. That however still does not reassure me that she will not have a conflict of interest in approving or disapproving the pipeline.

I share your opinion of Ms. Rice, and I also believe she is only interested in advancing herself. And, I frankly can not find anywhere that her time with the Clinton administration or even as Ambassador to the UN has been THAT remarkable. I question exactly why she is supposedly the front runner. Her resume and education look wonderful, but she still lacks experience and qualifications. I understand she is very abrupt and not at all diplomatic in her dealings at the UN. I do have a favorite for SOS-John Kerry. I think he is the most qualified, experienced and diplomatic of the two. Actually, I have to wonder why the US should have to settle for second best, Susan Rice?
