If Clinton-Gore tried to pull this I'd be the first to holler nepotism- even if she's pretty,and likeable. **

Since you and others insist on stressing her qualifications, let's take a look.
I don't see much on that long resume` about specializing in Arab studies or understanding the Arab mind. She's a political hack with a degree. Big deal. If her last name weren't Cheney she'd be rejected.
Not exactly an expert.
We're becoming more and more like a banana republic, with the promotion of family members into our government.
Maybe in 2009 Hillary will put her sleazy brother Hugh in charge of our Middle East policy. You'd all be screaming,then.
I think its pretty damn presumptuous of VP Cheney to pull this.
