Hello, I want to run a rule based on the name in a people picker field and an entry in a drop down field. How do I set the condition for the people picker?

 A good way to do this is to add a non-displayed field whose default value is a formula referring to the AccountId of the people picker. Then you can put rules on that new field and they will execute whenever the people picker's value changes.

 I actually did a variation of this. I created a text box in a non-displayed section that captured the UserName. Then based on that UserName I created rules to run and stopped other rules from running. I used action rules to say if the UserName contains xxxx then populate another text field with their email address. I then created a variable and set the value as the text field containing the email address. I then created an approval process that uses the variable as one of the approvers. And it works.

Of course the answer came to me after work.
