5. Why?

Why Treasury for Pete? I would think with his Intelligence background, he would be good for State or Defense. Maybe Warren for Treasury or Commerce, but I think she might remain in the Senate, which we need to recapture. Unless Biden chooses Warren as VP, which would be a strong ticket.

Also could see Kamala as VP or definitely AG. I do like the idea of a Team of Rivals coming together after running against each other in the Dem Primary. Anyway, it will be a great relief to have some adults in the White House after the waking nightmare that we have had for over three years now.
