You want a woman Pres? OK . I will run, help me build my cabinet

I am going to chose Octafish as my VP. I won't be ordering new curtains or rugs. However, I am going to have the place tented before I get started.

Since I plan on throwing EVERYONE out, I am going to need some good people to work for me. No previous experience will be necessary. Please recommend DUers for the open positions that will be available OR apply for the position yourself in a reply. Make sure to state why you are recommending the DUer, and for what position. If you are applying for yourself, please explain how your special talent will help to clean up the place around here.

as the Loyal Opposition, the guy who argues against everything on the grounds that if you can get it past me, you've really thought it through. Qualifications: Most cynical SOB on planet.

Especially if I get to have a bare-knuckle boxing match with Snow during the transition.

:D

The Vice President.

It ought to be a Cabinet position. :)

I nominate myself. :bounce:

My first job would be to close down the CIA, and move all spy operations back to the Army.

Then I would change the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of Non-Violence. Have all wars outlawed. Pull all troops out of offshore bases. Close down all domestic terrorists groups, like the NRA. Ban all guns and hunting. Outlaw the death penalty-- for National Security Reasons. Stop global warming

Replace the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines with the non-violent Army, Navy, Air force and Marines. Destroy all Atomic, biological, and chemical weapons. Reduce the military budget by 95%.

I spend a lot of time in national forests, hiking and fishing.

Archives. He should hold our memories for us and keep the record straight for future generations. His credentials speak for themselves.

No one here nudges us more consistantly to tend to the needs of the needy. She would do a spectacular job seeing that all people were included and had a seat at the table through her representation.

your SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion?

So I'd like to command my evil twin.
I hold a degree in Aeronautical Engineering.
And I've had space madness since the early Space Age.
I'll be well on the way to establishing the Federation by the end of your second term.

I love to plan parties and I think we could use a few more State Dinners to kick start our diplomatic efforts around the world. No one can settle world issues and reach compromises that are good for everyone on an empty stomach. ;)

You are definately hired!

sure that we are working for the clients not the drug companies.

... for your perusal, Madam President:

kpete as special information secretary -- there isn't a news story in the world that gets past her scrutiny.

Kentuck and Straight Story as your lead speechwriters -- both have not only a way with words, but a way with the the truth

H2O Man as Special Investigator to the President -- he can gather a million facts and turn them into six coherent paragraphs faster than Superman can leap a tall building.

Bob Geiger as Press Secretary Extraordinaire -- he can stop out-and-out propaganda on a dime, and give you nine cents in change.

Mythsaje as Special WH liaison to promote literary and artistic achievement, and Tom-in-Tib to call bullshit when it rears its ugly head.

EarlG, Skinner and Elad in whatever positions you see fit -- if they can run this website, they can help run a country.

And everyone who has ever served as a Mod should go on to a career as professional diplomats -- their experience in dealing successfully with adversity head-on speaks for itself.

As long as I'm at it, I'd like to suggest myself as the head of the newly-formed Department of OFFENSE. I find the current crop of Republicans to be truly offensive, and I think I can take Tony Snow with one hand tied behind my back. (Okay, so can just about anyone here -- but hey, I thought of it first).
