[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most important job is Chief of Staff, and that should go to Rep. Richmond to thank Clyburn for the SC firewall.

Why not try to get an Obama to be Secretary of State?  If not Barack, then Michelle.  Both have traveled the world and built many great relationships.

Michelle Flountroy (sp?) should be well positioned to run the Pentagon although Susan Rice could end up there.

A big donor should get Treasury.

The AG could be Preet Bharara.

Mayor Pete could end up at the VA and then get another shot somewhere else later in the first term.  Biden may move him around a bit to give some more substantial experience in government.

It also will be important to find key and visible jobs for Latinos.

Do you pay any attention to politics or do you just follow a bunch of blue-check liberals on twitter? First, Cedric Richmond should not be Chief of Staff. He is looking to be in house leadership. Giving him CoS would not be beneficial to Clyburn in anyway. It is going to be someone who has worked for/with Biden for years, likely Ron Klain.

President Obama and Michelle Obama are great figures, with relationships along the globe. But they are retired, there is no way either would be Secretary of State. It will likely be Chris Coons or Tony Blinken. I prefer Chris Murphy though (for his views on Yemen).

Michele Flournoy is likely the pick for defense. Susan Rice is hated by the right and would not get confirmed by a republican senate

A DONOR SHOULD NOT GET TREASURY. We need someone with experience as economist and who will look out for the everyday Americans when rebuilding our broken economy.

AG will probably be Doug Jones, but Preet is a good call.

Buttigieg will be UN Ambassador or USTR. He is a rising star, giving him a "boring" position will stymie him. (Look at Julian Castro)
