You're still not getting it. He could be perfectly happy with the choices he has for the position and still go after Hillary. You're making up. There are obvious reasons that he would go after Hillary for the position and they revolve around a republican president he constantly points out as one of his role models. Its all over the news so this you should be able to figure out easily.
Obama holds secret meeting with HRC
It's good to see Conservative America in the minority again, where it belongs.
Since Viva apparently still doesn't get it..
Doris Kearns Goodwin
There's an even bigger hint.
Obama in May of this year. May. As in half a year ago.
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpu...-proposes.html"I will tell you, though, that my goal is to have the best possible government, and that means me winning," Obama said, per ABC News' Sunlen Miller. "And so, I am very practical minded. I'm a practical-minded guy. And, you know, one of my heroes is Abraham Lincoln."
Obama then referred to "a wonderful book written by Doris Kearns Goodwin called 'Team of Rivals,' in which [she] talked about [how] Lincoln basically pulled in all the people who had been running against him into his Cabinet because whatever, you know, personal feelings there were, the issue was, 'How can we get this country through this time of crisis?'"
Lincoln, FYI, appointed three of his rivals for the GOP presidential nomination to his cabinet -- three men who at the time loathed him.
William H. Seward became secretary of state, Salmon P. Chase became secretary of the treasury, and Edward Bates became attorney general.
Another former rival, Edwin Stanton -- who once called Lincoln a "long armed ape" -- became secretary of war.
"That has to be the approach that one takes," Obama said, "whether it's vice president or cabinet, whoever. And by the way that does not exclude Republicans either. You know my at ude is that whoever is the best person for the job is the person I want. ... You know, if I really thought that John McCain was the absolute best person for the Department of the Homeland Security, I would put him in there."
Just for the record, I'm not thrilled with the thought of Clinton in that position. She was a war supporter and she's not exactly been great with Iran comments but I just think its funny when people try to spin this for something other than what it is. Especially when its idiots like Viva who when you ask them for a link they bumble around like the idiots they are.
Viva, I think I'm beginning to understand why you freak out about me knowing things in multiple areas. That is a hard concept to fathom when you can't display intelligence in a single area, isn't it?
I agree. Richardson is the safe pick for this position.
John Kerry would make a very good Sec of State. He's got all the credentials....plus he speaks French. It seems fitting that this position is held by someone who speaks at least one other language.
exactly where was the spin? please show me. if someone doesn't pick someone then the other are unsatisfactory for that position, correct? seems like its only one person making a big deal of it. the thread is called obama cabinet and i'm posting items i come across that relates to it. if you feel the need to "talk down" to someone to feel good about yourself then go ahead. i really don't lose sleep over much.
Post some links. Maybe we'll believe you.
You really don't understand why this is wrong do you?
Kerry, Clinton .. even Gore seems to be aiming to start strong arming Obama. Might as well call up Billy Clint and Edwards while we're at it.
Oh, I think Edwards forfeited his entire future political career already![]()
if you answer my question then maybe we can continue.
i read that gore said he was uninterested in a supposed "global warming czar" position that's being talked about in the obama camp. oh and edwards shouldn't even bother with running for any office of any kind for awhile.
Yeah right. He's definitely out of it for awhile, but Edwards will likely be back in some capacity at some point.
I'm pretty sure Richardson speaks spanish....![]()
well it's been offered to her.
Thanks for providing all these links.
thanks for providing the entertainment.
You can't even say where you heard it.
Thanks for being a stupid .
Is there anyone who actually values Viva's posting? Outside of his quattro s that is.
Wasnt Viva busting his nut when Obama was having "secret" talks with Hillary during his VP picking phase?
Damn dude....
Looks like it is between Richardson and Clinton for that SOS job. Kerry's name has seemed to have vanished from the picture. Clinton would be a bad idea imo. And I'm not just saying that because I like Richardson. Alot of voters want complete change. Adding Clinton to that position would piss off alot of people including myself. Let her stay in the senate.
