On the next US Secretary of State 

The National Review Online has an article from back in 1999 about Condoleezza Rice. Reading it, one can't but be impressed by her progress through life and her achievements. It might just make you rethink the emerging consensus in a certain segment of the media that this smart woman is being given her new post primarily to be Bush's yes-man in the State department.

Of course, the National Review is notable for its obnoxiously conservative bias (as opposed to, say, the Economist which is notable for its charming conservative bias). However, that 1999 article is fairly level-headed and therefore recommended.
