This one is for the certifiable political junkies in our midst...

Here's the list of cabinet posts and cabinet-level offices the Barack will need to fill when he is elected.

SO who would you pick for each position?

It would be fun to have this listed on the Obama website, too, We, the People have never had much of a say in the past about these appointments, but with the the interactivity that the web has made available, we can at least express our opinion!

Here's your chance to help Barack know who we like for his cabinet officers, give it your best shot, do some serious homework, and remember, if you pick a congressman or senator from a state with a Republican governor, they will replace them with a Republican, so like I said, do your homework. In the first comment, I'll put a link to the Senate and House committee listings, so you can see who is experienced and proficient at any particular function.

The cabinet posts are listed below the fold...

There are so many great Democrats from which to choose.

Regardless, Obama's cabinet will be brilliant people who will be offering up the best solutions from day one.

Start by giving this a 5-star rating, everyone, so it stays afloat for a while and a lot of people have a chance to participate.

Consolidate EPA/Energy/Transportation under Al Gore, and call it "the department of extracting head from ass".

Move the department of homeland security far enough away from the capitol to require a daily airline commute.

Please insure that Drug Control and HUD are on opposite sides of the table. We are not sure where the current administrations HUD has been getting their drugs, but we might as well play it safe.

The trade representative can do his job from the back of a water buffalo in rural China. If the USA is going to export jobs, might as well start at the top.

A Clintonian for the budget.
