Maybe someone like Elizabeth Warren if he wanted a 21st century Frances Perkins to spearhead many of the big domestic repairs and advances needed. Someone like Susan Rice if he wanted his VEEP handling much of the similarly fucked-up national security/foreign policy side. Reportedly in spite of discussing VP, insiders still see Rice as more likely for something like sec state or defense, though.
I'm wondering if he might choose to handle more of the foreign policy himself, stabilizing and restoring some of our standing on the planet, while he gave a heavy domestic agenda to a Klobuchar to make happen.
