'''Condoleezza Rice''' was the 66th [[United States Secretary of State]], and the first [[African-American]] woman to hold the post. Prior to assuming her duties as Secretary of State, she served as [[National Security Advisor]] to [[President]] [[George W. Bush]]. Her objective of transformational diplomacy is to, "work with our many partners around the world to build and sustain democratic, well-governed states that will respond to the needs of their people -- and conduct themselves responsibly in the international system." As she stated at her confirmation hearing, "we must use American diplomacy to help create a balance of power in the world that favors freedom. And the time for diplomacy is now."<ref>[http://www.newsmax.com/hottopics/Condoleezza_Rice.shtml Condoleezza Rice]. Newsmax.</ref>
