1. Kucinich as Secretary of Defense?
Umm... that won't happen.

And there is no Department of Energy & Environment.

7. Secretary of Peace, then
DK's ideas of diplomacy internationally and also for recreating our tendency to lack of peace domestically would be great assets to such a department, which other Dems are now espousing. But then DK has always been a man ahead of his time.

6. Actually not selfish, he's in a more powerful role for progressives
as senator.

There are lots of law-school types that could be AG, J. Turley certainly comes to mind.

5. Nope. All these fantasy cabinets are completely divorced from
reality, and I suspect are simply a function of wishful thinking and not understanding the realities of how a cabinet is formed. Furthermore, it is highly doubtful that Al Gore would accept such a position (even if there was such a position). And neither Clinton nor Obama will ever name Dennis to a cabinet seat.

10. Won't happen...
He'd force Single Payer on the new President (assuming it's a Dem) and they'd probably veto it.

:evilgrin:

12. Speakers can't "force" legislation
And if it passed by some miracle, a dem president would sign it.
