Susan Rice Says National Security Agencies Too ‘White, Male and Yale’

White House National Security Adviser Susan Rice said in a speech Wednesday that national security agencies are too “white, male and Yale.”

Rice, who is herself black, delivered a speech at Florida International University, in which she argued these agencies should better reflect the diversity present in America, The Washington Times reports.

For Rice, the problem with having too many white males is that a sort of “groupthink” environment is fostered. Through bringing in racial minorities, this groupthink can be shattered.

“By now, we should all know the dangers of ‘groupthink,’ where folks who are alike often think alike,” Rice said. “By contrast, groups comprised of different people tend to question one another’s assumptions, draw on divergent perspectives and experiences, and yield better outcomes.”

  2. Yet if a person in power who was white said something of this nature about black individuals they would most likely be protested against and fired....

  5. Has Obama has a chance to portray blacks in a positive light and to embrace their American blackness however his words despises the American dream. His words incites anger in the black community and hostility in the white communities. He's not a uniter he is he a divider, in power only due to his Marxist dictates.

  6. Dave T: Awe, I'm having trouble coming up with some compassion here. Looks like the liberal left is now pushing to play the race card now that the future seems to bode well for an ideology that is counter to their own. Amazing how we are forced to tolerate Obama's ridiculous policies and incompetence for 8 long years and now the minute new, differing ideas enter the circle for real leadership, we are suddenly plagued with racism. I'm agreed on all accounts with the other commentary here, if a white person said these things it would be a huge media affair. Looks like reverse racism is the problem here. Wake up black people ! Mr. Obama has done you no service. Just look at your unemployment data throughout his term. He gives more precedence to to Muslims and terrorist than he does to people of his own ethnicity. How pathetic that is.

  7. Every city that has blacks in the positions of power and leadership is failing or already in financial ruin. Just the kind of people we need running our security..

  12. Ok Susan, let's reduce the percentage of blacks "employed" by the government to represent the actual 14% of population. Too black, too uneducated and too many.

  14. This is the same woman who perpetrated fraud on national television, blaming a video for the Benghazi attack? Why has she come out from under the rock she's been hiding? And more importantly, why should we give a hoot what she says? Can you say, irrelevant?

  16. Aren't most of our country's enemies not white and didn't go to Yale? Makes sense to me.

  17. What are you dummies complaining about now? She used facts to back up a statement the military has already supported. Example: difficulties infiltrating terrorist networks because they dont have a clue about the muslim population. Sorry, but white men are not Gods gift to the world. And if you actually knew history, you would see that we got where we are today from contributions from all.

    1. As a matter of fact, white men have contributed more to modern civilization than anyone else. Asians have, as well.

      Africans couldn't even invent the wheel, let alone the sail, or a true written language.
