So, who do you want for the Cabinet?

Everybody can name different people they'd want for the top office. Anybody given any thought to the other departments? Sec'y of Defense, State and so on?

3. depends on who the nominee is.

and what their strengths and weaknesses are. I think they all should offer Al Gore Secretary of State.

4. Do you think Gore would want to be in the Cabinet

after winning the popular vote in 2000 for President?

Anyway he's terrifically qualified.

If Hillary becomes President, I'd like to see Obama on the Supreme Court--if he can explain away his comments about Reagan and the Republicans as the party of ideas.

8. Richard Clarke as Secretary of Homeland Security.

If Obama or Clinton or Edwards had ANY sense, they would ask Clarke to head Homeland Security...and not to squander this man's expertise as certain other administrations did.
