why not Mayer Pete

[Nikki28]

for veteran affairs? He is a vet and understand and can speak many languages. I do not think the guy Biden picked will get through after listening to the guy from Daily Beast who is saying many are against Biden pick.I think Pete should lead this.It will be a nod to the LGBT group and shows them their vote mattered. I wish I know why Pete is not on the list here but it is not up to me. I am just giving my opinion.

1. FYI

Pete Buttigieg has rejected the idea of serving as director of White House Office of Management & Budget and secretary of Veterans Affairs, according to Democratic insiders.

4. Turning down Vet Affairs I can understand,

but the Office of Management & Budget? He would be in the thick of it.

2. Has Slayer Pete hinted at what position he wants. VA might not

be what he wants - even though he would be qualified.

I know if I were young and just starting out on my marriage, I would love to be sent as Ambassador overseas so I could see new cultures, etc.

3. I think he wants something that is more related to international issues. UN Ambassador is what he

wanted but I think he would be ok with anything in that area .

5. He's on his way to China isn't he?

8. His foreign language skills point toward an overseas posting...

I read that Ambassador to China is being considered. Also, he was in military intelligence as an Army officer. He is incredibly intelligent.

Edit: George H. W. Bush was the US liaison to China for two years, before the US and China had official diplomat relations.

6. I trust Joe to make decisions and IF need be, change course.

Where was Paul Reichert(sp) -just now on MJ- when tr&mp said NOTHING about bounties on soldiers? tru% defunding the military is worse than a good VA appointment.
Gave away a brand new American Military base in Syria? Such that russians could finish eating a still warm prepared meal, and were doing curls in the gym and back engineering our construction before the sun went down.
tru#p has been the worst enemy to America AND THUS THE AMERICAN MILITARY and anybody but a privatizing trum* appointee is 100% better.
Paul just lost my respect on MJ.

7. VA is not really a stepping stone to something bigger.

Pete is headed up.

9. OK
