Clearly people are tired of Hillary and Barrack and are calling out for Condi.

I have a vote and I'm not afraid to use it!

I'm guessing the world wants Rice 'cause they want to cook and eat her. I guess that's a mark of respect ... or something ...

2 tablespoons butter
1/2 onion, minced
1/2 red bell pepper, minced
2 pinches kosher salt
2 cups long grain rice
2 3/4 cups chicken broth
2 strips orange zest
Pinch of saffron strands, steeped in 1/4 cup hot water
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
Golden raisins and pistachios for garnish

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a heavy, wide, lidded pan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add onion, red pepper, and kosher salt. Sweat the onions and peppers until aromatic, stirring constantly. Add the rice and stir to coat. Continue stirring until rice smells nutty. Add chicken broth, orange zest, saffron and water, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Stir once, then cover pan with moistened dish towel (or tea towel). Place lid on pan and fold towel corners over lid. Bake for 15 minutes. Then rest at room temperature for 10 to 20 minutes without removing the cover. Meanwhile, simmer peas in salted water until heated through or heat in a microwave. Remove lid from rice and turn out onto a platter. Add peas and fluff with a large fork. Add raisins and pistachios.

WHOA DLV.... I'm gonna go home and make some of that yummy-sounding stuff!

So, in terms of "What to invest in for the future?" Maybe agricultural commodities.

Thats a racist comment...cannibalism...and she's black. I can't believe you said that.

I demand an apology...and you need to lose your job, whatever job that is. Unless your a firefighter, cause those guys deserve some slack.

Hmmm ... what part was racist ? The part where you equated Condi with food ? I'd certainly like to get my racism education from an expert. Care to explain, Hero ?

Blacks aren't cannibals. I'm surprised YOU said that! Brush up on your ethnography, man!

Black people can be cannibals if they want to be. Who are you to say they can't be?

mmmmmm black rice

I find it tasty, sweet nice with fish... but I don't much care for the smell it makes while cooking... very fragrant.

The Alliance said they were gonna waltz through Serenity Valley. And we choked 'em with those words. We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty.
