Kucinich for Secretary of State
I think Dennis would make a great Secretary of State, because of our screwed up system it will be very hard for him to win as presidnet. But Dennis is articulate , charming smart and a straight=shooter.
I hope whoever wins would consider it!

3. I'll have to second that.
I'd rather he was President, of course. But if that doesn't happen this time, then he should be Speaker of the House. Add Chris Dodd as Senate Majority leader and a President who is capable of changing things, and we might actually make some progress in this country for the first time since Reagan crawled out of the swamp.

4. Nothing like DU Fantasy Politics
It's never going to happen. Dennis will never be named SoS and he'll never be Speaker. In fact, he'll never even be a Senator from Ohio. It's a shame, but that's the reality.

12. Always bored by your opinion, DR
It's so... unthinking and unremarkable. And unrealistic.

Happy New Year.

8. I think I'd like him as the first Sec. of the Department of Peace!
One would hope that a Democratic President would create this newer department that's been talked about for so long! I can't think of anyone better than Dennis to set the agenda for it!

11. What sort of diplomatic experience does he have?
Part-time congressman/part-time presidential candidate doesn't count.

14. I don't agree...he's too much

of an idealist. SOS needs a pragmatic realist. Now, if you suggested Amb. to UN, I think that idea might have some legs.
