Stavridis for SecState plz
I think Biden is done with direct public service. In his interview with Colbert about why he wasn't running for president, he said he couldn't keep doing it all. I respect the man, but he's been through a lot and if he wants a break, he's well earned it.
iirc Biden's foreign policy experience was the biggest reason Obama picked him to be VP, I think he was a key player during the Balkans intervention.Probably. Clinton probably wants to make her own mark by assigning someone not associated with the Obama admin.
I love Biden and I wish the guy had run, but I've never really considered him a powerhouse of foreign policy or negotiation. But maybe all the world needs is for Biden and Putin to sit down with a bottle of vodka and talk/rassle things out.
I think he's gonna have a role in her administration. I'd like to keep Kerry for now though.Stavridis for SecState plz
Biden and Bill is gonna have so much fun in the white house. I imagine slumber parties and doing office chair racing down the corridors.
It's premature and strikes of complacency to be discussing possible cabinet officials. How about winning the damned election first?

It is. It's very normal. Waiting until the election and trying to make all these decisions in two months would be silly and reckless, and going against the norm.Isn't this pretty standard, actually?

This wouldn't be a very good match given that the are noted as having strongly disagreed on national security discussions, where Biden typically aligned with Obama and Rice, but I think the country would benefit a lot with still having Joe Biden in public service.

I can see the Onion headlines now:
Diamond Joe Grabs Paul McCartney Concert Bootleg From Store In Akihabara for President Clinton
Joe Biden Holding Up Peace Talks Over Case of Pabst
International Agreement Reached After Totally Bitching Night At Ukrainian Night Club
Biden to President: "We're Now At War with Andorra, But I Can't Tell You Why"
Report: 40% Of All Calls From Biden to White House begin "Promise You Won't Get Mad"
Couldn't that disagreement in policy be a benefit though? Having someone on the other side of a discussion isn't exactly a bad thing, sometimes it helps you see moves you might not have seen otherwise.
Remember when Biden was the biggest skeez we had to worry about? Still love him. Awkward hugs and all.
He'd be terrible at this job. Joe has no filter, which is not a good trait for someone that works in foreign affairs.

Joe there.
Obama as Supreme Court justice.
Dooooooo it
Hillary did once said that she would consider him, that's what sparked the whole thing lol
I've seen this suggested quite a bit over the course of this election. Assuming that Hillary wins with a Democratic Senate majority, what are the actual chances of this happening? I don't "will the Senate vote him in", moreso "what are the chances Hillary nominates Obama for the currently vacant/next vacant spot"? I'd love to see Obama as a Supreme Court justice but I wonder if Obama would be her first choice.
First post does it again. I'm laughing just at the prospects.Oh yes please. Send that beautiful bastard around the world on the ultimate shoulder grab tour imaginable.
As much as I love Biden I think Kerry is doing good work and should stick around.

I'd assume he'd be on the list for SecDef, no?

As much as I would adore more Diamond Joe, I think keeping Kerry on would be better. Dude has been enormously effective, and there's going to be enough plates spinning during the transition that it'd be the safer option to keep him on.
I bet Biden and Bill would get into some wacky adventures.
I'd make him Secretary of Anime personally.
