Bloopers

My newspaper column yesterday, which had challenges enough in suggesting the issue with Hillary was Hillary, not womanhood, contained one of my all-time most-bungled sentences. It was the one saying our last two secretaries of state, fourth in line to the presidency and our very emissaries to the world, were women. There were only two powerful errors. Can you identify them? One is that I completely forgot Colin Powell, who served between Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice, and is no woman. The other is that while it's true the office of secretary of state is fourth in line to the presidency, Albright was born in Czechoslovakia and ineligible.
