Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State....think about it

I have been an Obama Supporter from the beginning and personally have been a little frustrated at all the Hillary focus over the past couple of months. Considering how well everything was united and how well everything came together at the convention, I think a killer ticket could also include Obama naming Hillary as his future Secretary of State. It may be bad form to name part of your cabinet ahead of time, but I think that could be a huge in uniting the party and building a strong ticket.

She could be a huge force in setting the international stage for an Obama presidency and ALSO could be a neutralizing force for V.P. Palin if she was considered an "unofficial" name on the Obama ticket. It could be a unifying move as well as a tactical one against the McCain ticket.

I completely agree that naming a title for Hilary as a staff member of some sort before the election would be a good united front and something the hilary supporters could hold on to when they're in the voting booths. I think the convention did a lot to help Hilary voters support Obama, but something else needs to happen in order to guarantee that push. She CERTAINLY needs to make a statement that anyone voting for McCain just because he has a woman on the ticket is not showing their support for Hilary. The two couldn't be any more different!!!

State?

Hillary in the Cabinet is a good idea. State, though, isn't where I'd put her.
