Good evening Anderson and bloggers!
I pretty like Sen. Clinton but I wonder, where is the change?
I love love love the idea of Hillary as Secretary of State. I think its phenomenal. And I'm so excited to see what comes of this administration. surely a step up from where we are now. How refreshing!
We absolutely MUST repair the damage done to our image and reputation overseas. Then, we have to start making headway. A high profile leader with proven leadership skills is absolutely necessary.
I personally would like to see obama choose a republican for sec of state but I'm not holding my breath.
Hilary Clinton might want people to think that she's considering the job as secretary of state so that she can reject it.
I agree, Hilary Clinton is the best person for the job. Former rivals with different views and a common intrest is too good to avoid. Not to mention Bill Clinton who would hopefully be playing a roll supporting Hilary and the states in a time of need.
SHOULD Hillary be SEC. of State or NOT
I think CNN is just playing with us; announce your sources and put them on the spot we are dying to know we have been left in suspense and cant wait any longer..
I think she should...
Please MR President Elect sort this puzzle out for us; America is waiting...
I think Hillary was a formidable opponent I hope she will really be President Obama's voice i foreign affairs and not go rogue. My question is would she someday embarrass the president i she strongly disagrees with him?
An african american president, a woman as secretary of state, and a possible position for Richardson... I am loving the diversity of this new administration! what a refreshing change for our country!
I agree, although I like Obama, I can't see his cabinet consisting of any more then just the same old people we have seen before.
Politician have to be pragmatic. That's a quality that gets things done...and re-elected. I'm sure whatever differences Obama/Clinton have, they'll just ignore it and get down to work.
Yes, I believe Hillary Clinton will be a great Secretary of State for President Elect Obama.
Good evening to Mr. Cooper and the 360 crew and all the bloggers. I had said that anyone disappointed with Clinton out of the running for president should support Obama as he will find a spot for her. They should not jump ship just because a woman was put on the other team.
I think it is good idea for Hillary to take postion secretary of the state, if she is willing take it.
I have a dumb question: Who all is in the Cabinet? I know Sec. of State, Defense, Interior. Who else is there?
Hello Anderson and Fellow Bloggers,
I'm excited to finally start blogging! I've been watching AC 360 for a long time (and I love that you have the podcast for when I miss the show!) and finally have a computer in front of me while I'm watching! Senator Clinton would make an excellent Secretary of State should President-Elect Obama choose her. She should definitely want the job!
Hi Erica, me too.... so we are three at least
I wouldn't be surprised to see Obama give Hillary Clinton the post because so far it looks like he is just bringing back the old Clinton bunch. I thought he was all about change and Washington outsiders. So far it looks like the same old insiders.
of course hillary wants it. she isnt going to run agains thim in 12 and this is her best opprotunity at aleast assisting or being a catalyst for change. I really want to see Colin powell serve in the cabinent some where, homeland security maybe?
Hilary Clinton is the best person for this job... though i am not one of her supporters.
OMG Anderson...Why are people sooo hung up on "vetting" her??
She has been vetted plenty.
As for "her husband" HELLO he was the 42nd President of the United States!! I just don't get it.
I am a huge Obama supporter and I also like & respect the Clinton's too. They would never hurt our country.
ty
I believe Hillary Clinton will be a great Secretary of State for President
Elect Barack Obama.
Happy Friday! MaryBeth, I'll be working this wkd, too – you're not alone
🙂
If it takes a "Team of Rivals" to fix the USA,
I say "Go For It!" President Elect Obama
I'm on your side.
Happy Friday to all! Why are we talking about "the President Overseas"? Am I missing something? We need a strong leader who has the experience to help heal our international reputation. Clinton would be great and would show the world that our election politics can also expose the strengths of all involved.
Hello Bloggers: So if #1 choice for Sec. of State is Hillary, I wonder what cabinet position Obama is asking Bill Richardson for?
I love when David Gergen says "diss."
Good evening Anderson. Looking forward to a good show and looking forward to the webcasts too.
It would be great news if HRC got Sec. State. She'd be gone from NY!!!
Europe would love Hillary Clinton as the Sec of State
Why doesn't Obama just ask Hillary or not. Why all the behind the scenes leaks.
Good evening Anderson from southeast Wisconsin!
Thank God it's Friday (well it's already Saturday where I live)!
Have a nice weekend everyone.
hi anderson and all, i dont believe he offered her the job that why he spoke with gov richarson, i hope john kerry gets it. sorry hillary friend stop making false leaks. we know obama dont leak anything.
Hello Anderson, Erica and best bloggers!!!!
I am so exciting for Hillary to take job for defense of secretary!
Happy friday!
Senator Clinton would be a good candidate for Secretary of State. I think the job requires a new approach. She could be very effective. We must make sure we reach out to other leaders in a partnership and not with a sense of arrogance and superiority. For example, I would like to see an “Obama Peace Commission” operate under the umbrella of the Secretary of State and focus on achieving peace at the grass root levels with other nations. I could suggest Oprah Winfrey, Anderson Cooper, Bill Gates to be part of that commission. We need star power.
I think it would be a good choice to have HC on the team
Good evening Anderson and bloggers, I think HC would be great as Sec. of State
I wonder if taking the job as Secretary of State will make it impossible for her to canditate for president the next time. will it?
Good evening Anderson! TGIF! Hilary Clinton as Secretary of State would definitely be a good thing!!
Good evening Anderson
I think Hillary would be a great secretary of state but I also think Richardson would be great too. Whomever Obama picks, Im sure they would do a great job with the position
Hellooo Anderson, Erica and best bloggers!!!
Happy Friday night!! ( I am back from my vacation)
My hearts goes to people who lost their homes.......
Good evening and happy weekend!
hello all what a nice friday
Hey hey bloggers!
I really hope Hillary is secretly excited about this and gives in and just accepts the job already.
Good Evening Bloggers! I am delighted HC is being considered for a position in the new administration. I hope it happens–she has so much to offer.
Happy Friday everyone! I hope no one else has to work the weekend, like I do.
Hi there Anderson, Glad to be with you tonight – looking forward to a good show.
Good evening Anderson and everyone.
