Susan Rice to talk about her new book and Maine roots at event in Portland
AUGUSTA — Former ambassador and national security adviser Susan Rice will be in Portland on Thursday to discuss her role in the Obama administration’s diplomatic successes or failures, current world events and her family’s deep roots to Maine.
And while Rice won’t be on the ballot in Maine next year, she is keeping the door open to a future run one year after exciting some Democrats with a “spontaneous” tweet about challenging Sen. Susan Collins.
“I would not rule it out, absolutely,” Rice said Tuesday in an interview with the Portland Press Herald.
Rice is appearing at Port City Music Hall as part of a national tour to promote her new book, “Tough Love,” a memoir recounting her family history, upbringing and experiences as a black woman and mother who rose to senior posts in the federal government. Tickets are required for the 7 p.m. event.
