AS PART OF THE GEORGE W. BUSH ADMINISTRATION, SHE SERVED AS NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR & LATER AS SECRETARY OF STATE
Eighties music is the Final Jeopardy category. I like it already. Here's the clue. A posted sign told the artists to check your egos at the door before the recording of this 1985 single. Thirty seconds starting now, players. Good luck. We'll start with Evelyn Lam in the middle with $5,000. What song did you come up with, Evelyn? What is We Are the World? Yes. All those musicians in USA for Africa, check their egos at the door. What did you wager? Nothing. So you still have $5,000. Ron Clark was in second place with 9,100. Did he remember We Are The World? He's correct. What was the wager? He wagered all of it, 9,100, taking him to 18,200. He is now tied for the lead with Greg Monson. Did Greg know We Are The World? He's correct. Did he bet for the win? He did no, a zero bet. We have a tie at 18,200 rank we are headed to a tie better. Here's how this is gonna work. I will read a category, then reveal the clue. The first player to buzz in and respond correctly will be declared our winner. Greg, Ron, good luck. The tie better category is American woman, and here's the clue. As part of the George w Bush administration, she served as national security adviser and later as secretary of state. Rank. Who's Condoleezza Rice? Condoleezza Rice is correct. And Ron Clark is today's Jeopardy champion. Wow. What a finish. 18,200 for you. Congratulations, Ron.
