Jennifer Granholm
Former Governor of Michigan
Jennifer Mulhern Granholm is a Canadian-born American politician, educator, author, and political commentator who served as Attorney General and 47th governor of the U.S. state of Michigan. Wikipedia
She is by far qualified, and this will energize the female base. She has also worked hard for the democratic party.
That's my pic!

(36,975 posts)I wonder if she even has a desire for that position.

(96,941 posts)She was in Mass campaigning for Rep. Edward Markey for Senate. She was stopping in his campaign headquarters. She was so animated.
I think she likes it right where she is, in Teddy's old seat. She is a force to be reckoned with and can focus on what she does best, fighting for the middle class.
Nice talking with you MoonRiver, have a great day.

(2,104 posts)Kicking off the TED2013 conference, Jennifer Granholm asks a very American question with worldwide implications: How do we make more jobs? Her big idea: Invest in new alternative energy sources. And her big challenge: Can it be done with or without our broken Congress?

(2,104 posts)The states trying to do it now, are having a very hard time with their governors. just look at Florida, the legislature, and the FORMER Fla supreme judges trashing the current supremes ruling of the ballot amendment. Unprecedented!
Jennifer follows the law...especially when more than 60% of the citizens vote for it.
Holder did not do this!

(2,104 posts)Another good potential, also female, is Christine Gregoire. She had a very successful Governorship in WA State.
A former Mayor mentioned her on Facebook and I agree with him on that choice as well.
