WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice indicated Sunday she has no interest in running for president or any office.
In response to questions from host Tim Russert on NBC News' "Meet the Press," Rice said she is "flattered" by groups pressing her to run, but, "I don't know how many ways to say no ... I don't know how many ways to tell people that this -- I have no interest in being a candidate for anything."
Russert pointed out that Republican supporters are already running advertisements for her candidacy in New Hampshire and Iowa. "Should they stop running that ad?"
Though Rice refused to say whether the ad should be stopped, she again said she is not running.
"I appreciate and I'm flattered that people think of me in those terms," Rice said, "but it's not what I want to do with my life. It's not what I'm going to do with my life."
