How are we with Joe giving Cindy McCain an ambassadorship?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

I say yay.

[CatMor]

1. I second it.

[samnsara]

2. love the idea

[PTWB]

3. Fine with me.

There are plenty of positions to go around even after all the Democrats who helped get him elected have been hired and appointed to their positions of choice.

Joe is the type of guy who is going to remember the folks who helped make this day possible, no matter the letter designating their party affiliation.

4. She probably wouldn't want to be an ambassador.

That requires actually moving to a foreign country for your tenure. She may want to stay closer to her grandchildren and the rest of her family.

But she could certainly have some kind of role and I think that would be great.

[Orangepeel]

5. She'd probably be a good ambassador

based on her life experiences. I'd be surprised if she'd want to do it at her current stage of life.

[DLCWIdem]

6. He already said she was going to get a position on his cabinet

[Eliot Rosewater]

7. Give her anything she wants.

[questionseverything]

8. She is a super wealthy heiress, why would she want to work in government?

She helped when she could,let her enjoy her life

[kurtcagle]

9. Yes.

I think that John McCain is the one most likely to be said of, "I didn't agree with his politics, but I respected the man" by Democrats. Cindy McCain has been even more willing to associate with Democrats, and McCain's stature has only grown in Arizona since his death.

I also think that it may be possible to tip Murkowski into the blue zone. She generally kept to her convictions, and unlike Susan Collins, when she disagreed with Trump (often) she usually voted that way. There are several people on the Republican side who recognized the danger of Trump, and we NEED them right now.

10. It would be a great thing if she wishes it

Both Bangladesh (from which she adopted a child), VietNam (obvious), I have no idea where her ancestry is but that could provide other suitable countries.

[ananda]

11. OK

... I think she helped us win Arizona.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

12. At the very least, she could be U.S. ambassador to the U.N.

[chillfactor]

13. not a problem for me

[Hekate]

14. Fine with me! She'll be 100% better than any of Trump's choices. nt

[obamanut2012]

15. I would be fine with it

She came out for marriage equality very publicly at one time, too.

[JI7]

16. Ok with it but not sure she wants it

[MaryMagdaline]

17. Fine. She's competent and she's a patriot with lots of international contacts

[wishstar]

22. yes, something humanitarian would be fine after lack of that in past 4 years

[NoRoadUntravelled]

18. If she desires to serve in that capacity at this point in her life then go for it.

She'd do a fine job.

[halfulglas]

19. If she wants one that would fit, fine.

I think she's a smart lady and if she wants one, she would work hard at it. I think Joe's team are going to be careful with political appointments - not like Trump who picked appointees to departments and agencies directly from K street. Now I haven't heard of any mass suicides from K street so I assume they'll always be okay but if she would want one, I think it would show bipartisanship on Joe and Kamala's part.

[Statistical]

20. I am pretty sure she is not interested but if she is she clearly puts country over party.

[Lars39]

21. Would she want the Vatican? Gingrich needs to go!

[Deuxcents]

23. Yes, if she wants it.
