Is Obama allowed to announce his VP and recruits now? |
|
Is there any legalities preventing Obama announcing his Veep now? And are you allowed to announce your adminstration like secretary of state before the general election?
I think it would be wise for Obama to announce at least a chunk of his nominees for key positions before the general election just to garner greater support. I'd put Sebelius Veep, Richardson Secretary of State, Al Gore Environment minister, John Edwards - Healthcare, etc.

1. I don't think he is allowed to do it... |
|
and even if he were, he would not due it out of respect for Hillary.

2. Of course he's allowed. But it's probably politically stupid to do so. (NT) |

3. Once Hillary lets go of her hostage hold on Obama - perhaps. |

5. And this thread has absolutely nothing to do with Clinton |
|
but you gotta throw some hate around anyway. A big steaming pile of unity.

There's nothing stopping him. Its probably not the smartest thing to do politically, but he can name his Veep or cabinet nominees whenever he wants.
