Rice was President Bush's National Security Advisor during his
first term. Before joining the Bush administration, she was a
professor of political science at Stanford University where she
served as Provost from 1993 to 1999. During the administration of
George H.W. Bush, Rice served as the Soviet and East European
Affairs Advisor during the dissolution of the Soviet Union and
German reunification.
When beginning as Secretary of State, Rice pioneered a policy of
Transformational Diplomacy, with a focus on democracy in the
greater Middle East. Her emphasis on sup****ting democratically
elected governments faced challenges as Hamas captured a popular
majority in Palestine yet sup****ted Islamist militance, and
influential countries including Saudi Arabia and Egypt maintained
authoritarian systems with US sup****t. She chairs the Millennium
Challenge Cor****ation's board of directors.[1]

education, and soon took a job as a second grade school teacher.
After attaining her Master's degree in Library Science from the
