1. Jim Webb is great. K&R

2. AWESOME

I want him for VP. I don't care that he has only been a Senator for 1 1/2. He has the administrative abilities from the Pentagaon years. He has the LEADERSHIP ability. John Edwards for Attorney General. Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense. We need LEADERS in America. Men and Women of Vision.

3. Don't drain the Senate of strong leaders...

My greatest fear is that we are going to end up pulling two great, strong senators from Congress and possibly leave a hole for the rat/repugs to sneak some skunk in there to tie us down again. This man can do more for our country as a US Senator than he could ever do as a VP. The same is true for the other great Senators: Clinton, Dodd, Biden, etc.

There are plenty other great leaders for this country that can fill the VP role. I honestly hate to lose Obama to the White House, but on the other hand, his eloquent words might just be what this country is dying for....after eight years with this handicapped monkey we've had.

4. I actually want to drain the Senate a little more.

I want Webb to be Secretary of Defense, and Biden to be Secretary of State. These guys can change the way our gov. has been working, and we can find good people to replace them. As for VP, I am not sure. Hillary Clinton may end up in that role whether or not we like it, and I would accept it.

5. But as VP,

he would be President of the Senate. I know the VP only votes when there is a tie but I think he could still be very influential.
