Obama would offer both Al Gore and Bill Clinton a position in his administration

Would you say Al Gore is really the catalyst for concern about climate change?
He has been working on this for decades. The country and the world caught up to him.

Would you offer him a job in an Obama Administration?
In a minute.

What about Bill Clinton?
In a second. There are few more talented people.

Israel and the Palestinians. I'm sure Bill would love to do that and win a Nobel Prize of his own.

I can see him putting Gore in charge of developing a Marshall Plan for alternative energy or something like that, along with working with the world community to make it a global effort.

Why not ask them?

10. why is it desperation?

i for one would like to hear more from the candidates just who they would pick for their cabinets or advisors. those two picks will or should be somewhere in the next democratic president`s advisors.
