Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State?(edit: o wunderbar-NOT!. We are getting the same old hawk centered Democratic Party, that kowtowed disgracefully to Bush for 8 horrid years, yes for 8 horrid years the Democratic Party were but the feeble enablers of the Horror of Bush. And Hillary Clinton at the lead.John Kerry the old, is trite boring ultra zionist Hawk that in aging revealed he was always just shallow opportunist that sought but notoriety/fame when he gained by being opposed to Vietnam war. Something in which this vacuous hypocrite who goes o suffering in the bed of billions of dollars, said, regards his Anti-Vietnam days, disgracefully said "one makes mistakes in one's youth". Also Kerry before that that LED a campus arch conserversative group of students that attempted to Ban Protest against the war on His Precious Campus.Kerry proved in his life to be nothing but hollow, pretense , what a farce all this is--ALL OF IT. i suspect i am in kindergarten in this world, where are the Giants, they're down where i hide in The Mental Underground. My rebel "underground" of outsiders i think at times the only real people left -- i have always looked at the world and thought "What Hell this???" max)

There's increasing chatter in political circles that the Obama camp is not overly happy with the usual suspects for secretary of state these days and that the field might be expanding somewhat beyond Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), Gov. Bill Richardson (D-N.M.), Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.) and maybe former Democratic senator Sam Nunn of Georgia.
There's talk, indeed, that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) may now be under consideration for the post. Her office referred any questions to the Obama transition; Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor declined to comment.
The pick of the former presidential contender and Senate Armed Services Committee member would go a long way toward healing any remaining divisions within the Democratic Party after the divisive primaries. Also, Clinton has long been known for her work on international women's issues and human rights. The former first lady could also enhance Obama's efforts to restore U.S. standing amongst allies worldwide.
And Obama could put her in his speed-dial for a 3 a.m. phone call every morning. |
