About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
#1 On election night, Albright was with the President. She was expecting a call from Vernon Jordan, who was to head up the vetting team at the State Department. She thought it would be a good idea for her to connect with White House personnel and begin the process.
#2 Albright was eventually offered the job, and she accepted. But she had to be careful about how she made it clear to the White House that she was interested in the position. The Clinton administration had run into trouble with some of its appointments, and they had issued a directive that candidates for all positions be thoroughly vetted before the White House would even acknowledge that they were under consideration.
#3 Albright was a professional who had no interest in the job. She was grateful to have friends like Leahy to jolt her into action mode when necessary.
#4 Albright made a point of visiting the capitals of dozens of countries, which was rarely done by the State Department’s more senior diplomats. She was building political capital with the dozens of envoys throughout the world.
