WASHINGTON, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice could join
Vice President Dick Cheney as a potential witness in the perjury trial of Cheney's
former top aide, as jury selection began on Tuesday in the case which has cast
a spotlight on how the White House justified war in Iraq.

The names of Cheney, Rice and her predecessor, Colin Powell, appeared on a long list
of government officials and news reporters who may be called as witnesses or whose
names may come up in the trial of Cheney's former chief of staff, Lewis "Scooter"
Libby.

Cheney has already said he expected to testify. Others on the list include White House
political advisor Karl Rove, former CIA director George Tenet and former Pentagon
secretary Paul Wolfowitz.

Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald asked one potential juror if she would have trouble
seeing Rice as a credible witness if she were to testify.
