Please Barack ~ leave Hillary in the Senate. You know as well as I that selecting Hillary as SOS gives slick willie a new life and that means your going to have to constantly watch and monitor their self serving actions on a world stage. There is only one logical qualified choice who has more than earned it by his courageous endorsement of you earlier this year ~ Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico: Allen L Roland
Dick Morris, a onetime Bill Clinton adviser who is now an open critic of the Clintons, contends the public is now witnessing Hillary's "brazen" and "desperate" efforts to get the job ( similar to her Vice Presidential maneuverings ). She may have discussed it with Obama in Chicago last week, Morris wrote on his Web site yesterday, then tried to lock that into an "offer" by leaking an account of their meeting to the media. Obama, Morris argues, is seeking to escape the trap by having allies talk about the legal problems and lining up Senate jobs for her ~ through Sen Reid and Sen Kennedy.
The Clinton's sense of political entitlement is mind boggling but the reality is Obama needs a deeply trusted and airtight relationship with his Secretary of State and that would be impossible with Hillary Clinton.
Governor Bill Richardson is not only well qualified but is completely in sync with Obama and would be the first Latino Secretary of State.
