84. Bargaining Tool for SOS, which she did win..
Fri Mar 25, 2016, 07:33 PM
Mar 2016

I could see the logic of her being pushed for VP given Obama was young and inexperienced..but, I always thought SOS was what she wanted given her "Friends" and she was a Madelyn Albright Disciple...and a "Friend of Kissinger."

I think there was a bargain made there.

Been waiting for this to come up... DeGreg Mar 2016 #1
