[Minstrel Boy]

6. How about Attorney General Vincent Bugliosi?

Bugliosi seems to have a pretty good sense of justice, and a wealth of respect.

others (dream on, Minstrel Boy...):

VP: Carol Mosely Braun
Secretary of State: Katrina vanden Heuvel
Secretary of Defense: Dennis Kucinich
NSA: Max Cleland

Scrap Homeland Security. Institute a Department of Truth and Reconciliation, and appoint Cynthia McKinney.

9. Clark can't be Sec of Defense.....

A military officer must be seoarated (retired) frim the military for 10 years before he can serve that office.

[PsN2Wind]

16. Yeah and

The Prez and VP can't be residents of the same state.

[Old and In the Way]

10. I don't think Clark can be considered for SecDef because of

separation time limits.....he'd be my 1st choice if he could be considered.

14. Dennis Kucinich - Dept. Of Peace

Bill Clinton - Sec. of state
Wes Clark - Sec. of Defense


Peace? :hippie: :smoke: :freak:

[cosmokramer]

15. Clark can't be Sec. Def...you have to be out of active duty 10 years.

But I agree with you that there should be a Dept of Peace. It is Kucinich's BEST idea, and it is a gem.

[LWolf]

17. I'm not sure.

There aren't really any that stand out for me. Maybe Ann Richards?

I know who I don't want, though. No Gray Davis, thank you. Even though I voted for him in the latest California circus, I was very unhappy with him as the leader of my state.

[indie_voter]

18. Clark as VP or State, Gary Hart as Dir of Homeland Security
