Who else wants to see Bill Richardson as Secretary of State?
I think he'd be perfect for the job, and would be a huge step forward for Latino Americans.

4. I wouldn't object to that choice, but I defer to the president elect now
he's shown himself to be very wise about whom he surrounds himself with.

I trust him complicitly at this point to make the right choice.

7. MeMeMe!!!
Our Goob is a great fit for that job. His foreign policy resume is excellent PLUS he 'has a way with him' when it comes to tricky negotiating tasks. He and Obama get along well and he's got the administrative experience to do what's needed to clean up the mess at State.

wishfully,
Bright

9. Richardson's been my choice for SOS for a while now
I actually had him and Biden tied as far as VP and SOS goes. Either one of them would have been great in either job.

Of course Joe was picked to be Vice President, so now I hope Bill gets the State Department. And I'm thinking he just might have shaved for the upcoming job interview ;)

10. I wondered about Gen Wes Clark for that job.
He can't be Sec Def. (because he's not been retired long enough) but he sure has the understanding and world experience to be Sec of State.
