Condi in Think Tank Land

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, a rumored Romney vice presidential pick, is having quite a post-Bush Administration think tank career.  Here are some examples:

• In June of last year she helped launch a new initiative between the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and Chevron Corp. called The Project on US Leadership in Development.

• She is currently the Thomas and Barbara Stephenson Senior Fellow on Public Policy at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.

• Rice is chair of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) Independent Task Force on US Education Reform and National Security.  [She is a current member of CFR based on the 2011 membership list.]

• She is on the Board of Trustees of the Aspen Institute.

• She is an Honorary Director at the Atlantic Council of the United States (ACUS).

• She spoke before the Heritage Foundation in April 2012 about American exceptionalism.

Rice is no stranger to think tanks.  She was previously an intern and later on the board of trustees of the Rand Corporation, and she served as an international affairs fellow at CFR.
