Just pick Bill Bradley as Commerce Sec and get it over with

[TeamJordan23]

That is who I would like to see.

[Mojambo]

1. Robert Reich is the best name I've heard floated so far. n/t

[MarjorieG]

2. The job means selling business opportunities, with labor, environment, human rights thrown in.

Love Reich, but he's communicator economist par excellence more than globe-trotting salesman.

Does Bradley have the salesman personality? He's more intellectual Rhodes scholar, though a great addition to the WH b-ball team.

[Elwood P Dowd]

4. Bradley worships free trade and outsourcing.

Unless he has done a 180 since his days in the Senate, he is not much better than the repuke Obama nominated.

[MarjorieG]

5. More were than weren't; seeing the damage done now.

[sabbat hunter]

3. how about Warren Buffett

he already has said that the rich do not pay enough taxes, is a very successful business man and salesman.

[PurityOfEssence]

6. Must we waste Gary Hart forever?

Oh, that's right...he's a liberal.

Damn.

[vaberella]

7. Make a thread, produce a strong argument and you'll have it go viral. n/t

[kiranon]

8. Bill Clinton for Sec. of Commerce. Teach the Republicans it doesn't

pay to play nasty with the President. Would serve them right and Bill would do a great job. At first I thought of it in jest but now it seems like an interesting idea. Just floating the possible nomination would drive the Republicans crazy.

9. Nah. But I would have to say Commerce is kind of irrelevant and it would be fun to see some wingers

heads explode over it!
