Obama considers stars for Cabinet (2008- lefties lovin' RFK Jr!!!)
Politico ^ | 11/05/2008 | Mike Allen

President-elect Barack Obama is strongly considering Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head the Environmental Protection Agency, a Cabinet post, Democratic officials told Politico.

Obama’s transition planners are weighing several other celebrity-level political stars for Cabinet posts, including retired Gen. Colin L. Powell for secretary of defense or education, the officials said.

Kennedy’s cousin, Caroline Kennedy, who helped Obama lead his vice presidential search, is being considered for U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, although some Obama officials doubt she would take the post. Obama is indebted to the Kennedy family for a hearty endorsement at a crucial point in the Democratic primaries.

The selection of Kennedy would be a shrewd early move for the new presidential team. Obama advisers said the nomination would please both Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.).

It also would raise the profile of the EPA, which would help endear Obama to liberals who may be disappointed on other issues important to the Democratic left because of budget restrictions.

Has he ever really had a job?

Not unless you count sueing the military and energy companies and supporting the green party (except wind power near Martha's vineyard). He did have his Instagram has removed for telling people the truth about the COVID scam but it was re-instated.

His father was attorney general and uncle the president but both of them were assassinated. I am worried for President Trump.

His skins looked so much better about 10 years ago. Now, he looks like someone singed him with a blowtorch and painted him lucifer red. He looks like a weirdo. I am disappointed that he did not age gracefully. Even pillowhead Ted Kennedy aged better.
