What would a Clinton/Obama/McCain/Romney Presidential Cabinet look like?
Vanity | 1-31-08 | SeafoodGumbo

Posted on 01/31/2008 12:33:02 PM PST by SeafoodGumbo

Who do you think would be selected for the most important Cabinet positions?

Defense
Homeland Security
Attorney General
State

The full Cabinet:

The Cabinet includes the Vice President and the heads of 15 executive departments-the Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Education, Energy, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, Labor, State, Transportation, Treasury, and Veterans Affairs, and the Attorney General. Under President George W. Bush, Cabinet-level rank also has been accorded to the Administrator, Environmental Protection Agency; Director, Office of Management and Budget; the Director, National Drug Control Policy; and the U.S. Trade Representative.

Mccain will have Guliani in there somewhere... He was with Mccain today in CA when he was being endorsed by Arnold.. A sign? perhaps VP choice?

I'd imagine that McCain would pick Giuliani as AG.

McCain

Defense: Schwartzkopf
Homeland Security: Guilianni
Treasury: Phil Graham
Attorney General: ?
State: ?

I think McCain would bring in good talent into the administration. Old faces. Give the old fart his due.

Oh well we know that a Clinton or Hussein NObomba Cabinet would “look like America.”

In other words, competence would take a backseat.

My guesses ...

- Huckabee (McCain) or Thompson (Romney) for VP
- Giuliani may be picked for Homeland security (most likely by McCain).
- Gen. Petraeus for Secretary of Defense (McCain and Romney)

I’d imagine that McCain would pick Giuliani as AG. (I picked Guilianni as Homeland Security . . . but somewhere).

The cantina/bar scene in Star Wars comes to mind.

McCain would have the advantage of being able to recruit both liberal/moderate Americans and MEXICANS for his cabinet. Heck, he already HAS a former Mexican cabinet minister, Juan “Mexico First” Hernandez on his campaign team! http://michellemalkin.com/2008/01/25/john-mccains-open-borders-outreach-director-the-next-dhs-secretary/

Guess you are a McCain supporter, since you already have Super Tuesday results with McCain the winner. I do not believe McCain will win because folks are too smart to vote for him over Romney with the race being between the two. I will keep hoping as a FredHead who voted for Romney.

This is a good questiona and should get the, “I will NEVER vote for McCain” people to maybe think before they hand the reigns of power to the Dims.

A President is not alone in setting policy. You have to look at the people that will surround them.

Hillary and Obama (Just named the most liberal senator of 2007) will surround themselves with the most liberal, anti-WOT, anti-values, anti-business, anti-military, anti-American, socialist commies around.

At least with McCain we might be able to shape some policy.

I CAN NOT STAND McCain, but I will crawl over broken glass to vote for him before I let Hillary or Obama take control of this nation. I am appalled at the thought that others would spit on the sacrifice made in Iraq and give the WH to the Dims. It makes me sick. And all of you know the one thing McCain will not do is turn his back on the soilders!!!

I just found that Wesley Clark is supporting Hillary. Could he be the next Secretary of Defense? *shudder*

Rush said that McCain may make Rudy the AG and Ahnold could be Secretary of Solar Power.

Re-read the title of the post; Romney's in there.

Too complicated. Clinton will keep it simple:

Defense: Someone who hates America.
Homeland Security: Someone who hates America.
Attorney General: Someone who hates America.
State: Someone who hates America.
