What Perry is correct about is simply the ability of a senior executive to form and manage a team. Governors have that experience, Congressmen do not. The individual currently pretending to be President is a perfect example. 0bama's administration could still have managed its mission to "transform", i.e. destroy, America, without becoming the laughingstock that it is if he could have formed and managed a team. But Hillary as Secretary of State? Biden as Vice President? This is not a guy who has a clue about forming a team - this is a syndicate, and a damn bad one.
Scott Walker as Secretary of Labor is a fantastic idea. Rick Perry can be Secretary of Energy.
I would not even be opposed to bringing Romney back as Secretary of Commerce. He was a,successful businessman. We need some people back in government that have actually started a business, hired employees and had to dig into his own pocket to make payroll a,few times. He was a terrible choice for President but he could be an able lieutenant.
The point is that we have really some good choices to pick from for the top and they will have many good choices to pick from for everything from generals to ground troops. All the Democrats have to choose from are old hippies, pointy headed academics and young radicals that have never held down a job let alone created one.
