Secretary of Education.

She beat Cruella DeVos’s husband in Michigan’s 2006 gubernatorial race.

It was awesome. And she was a very good governor. The Democtaic Party did not have a good candidate to take on Snyder.

“Vote Democratic”

“The job you save may be your own!”

We are heavy Dem, so our job is to drive up the count for Dems.

Too bad she was born in Canada. I would love for Biden to include her in his cabinet, though. She could be great in any one of a number of positions.

Press secretary is a pretty responsible position. Every effin day.... Facing the hard questions. To do it honestly and intelligently and effectively isn’t a job for juniors.

I know he will, but we had 150+ years with all male cabinets.

But, I'm sure he'll find places for Mayor Pete and at least one of the Castro brothers and others.

I'd be happy with these four:

Susan Rice: Secretary of State
Sally Yates: Attorney General
Elizabeth Warren: Secretary of Treasury
Michele Flourney: Secretary of Defense
