Hilary for Head of State?
Will Preseident elect Obama select Senator Clinton for Head of State? This is the subject getting a fair amount of attention as Obama talked with both Clinton and Governor Richards about the post.
I am reminded of the old saying “keep your friends close and your enemies even closer”. Obama does not seem to like Clinton much depsite the acclaimed speech she gave at the DNC and her campaign stumping she did for Obama after he had won the party’s nod for Democratic nominee.
The news pundits are also wondering how Vice President Elect Joe Biden might factor in any foreign policy role. However, no matter who is offered and accepts the HOS role, he or she isn’t going to want Biden ‘helping’ out. The HOS must have a firm command of international relations and Biden, unless serving for some humanitarian type of endeavor is likely to just be in the way and potentially undermining the HOS position.
