I had this dream about 2008...

[Fridays Child]

Before the primaries began, the major Democratic candidates and key public servants, got together and decided to run as a team. After electing Barack Obama to the White House with Hillary Clinton as his VP, the others agreed to step into the following Cabinet positions:

Bill Clinton: State

Wes Clark: Defense

John Edwards: Labor

Bill Richardson: Health and Human Services

Al Gore: Interior

Dennis Kucinich: Agriculture

Chris Dodd: Commerce

Joe Biden: Homeland Security

Mike Gravel: Treasury

Patrick Fitzgerald: Justice

It was just a dream.

1. Hm. Other than the Prez/VP, it's not exactly a diverse group.

[Fridays Child]

4. I'm interested to hear who you, and others, might pick.

Fire away. :)

5. Condi Rice will be available...

:evilgrin:

[Fridays Child]

6. That's just wrong...

...and you know it! ;)

[Colobo]

2. As long as Obama is president, it's all good.

[Fridays Child]

10. I think he'll make a great president.

[Gregorian]

3. A good dream.

Very much unlike the nightmare of today.

I think your dream makes me realize that we're going to do well. Lots of combinations and options.

8. The candidates do represent hope but, beyond that, I wonder what might happen, if this scenario...

...or something similar, were presented to the voting public. All of them could spread out and campaign as a team, with the stated goal of giving America back to the people.

7. Give Ag to Grassley, Special Prosecutor to Kucinich

[Fridays Child]

9. Interesting...yes, I could definitely see that.

11. I like Kusnich as AG

We need an AG with a proven record of fig hing for justice and fairness and Dennis has that in spades.
my second pick for AG would be Ralph Nadar, but I like the guy and he wold not live to see his first year of service.

16. You mean Grassley the *repuke* senator?!

Thanks, but no thanks. What's Jim "Whole Hog" Hightower doing these days?

[Nite Owl]

12. I'd rather see Kucinish in

HHS in charge of the new single payer heath care plan. Richardson can go to the UN.

[Fridays Child]

13. I'd agree with that.

[L. Coyote]

14. I had this nightmare about Lady Liberty

The torch of freedom was no longer held high. Instead, she was pointing at me
asking, "Did YOUR vote count?" very much a la "Uncle Sam Needs YOU."

I awoke.

15. Group dynamic at work.

I had it, too. :(
