Secretary of State
The United States Secretary of State is the head of the United States Department of State, concerned with foreign affairs. The Secretary
is the highest-ranking cabinet secretary both in line of succession and order of precedence. From the birth of the nation to 1997, only white men
represented the United States on the international front; since then no white male has held the position with the tenures of Madeline Albright,
Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton.

Prestige
International prestige is the
Secretary of State’s concern, almost
by definition. Even maverick White
Houses privately recognize that it’s
easier to get things done if the neigh-
bors like you.

So you need to ask yourself:

what will the other countries of the
world think about what you’re doing?
As Secretary of State, it’s your job to
keep the rest of the world liking Amer-
ica.
