“I learned that running for office really wasn’t in my DNA when I helped [President] George W. Bush run in 1999. We’d go to maybe five campaign events in a day..and at the end of the day, he was raring to go and I was raring to go to bed. And I thought, ‘Maybe this just isn’t for me,'” Rice said when asked whether she would consider running for president following a keynote address at the RSA cybersecurity conference in San Francisco, Calif. “But I’ll continue to do public service as I hope we all do.”
