kapkomet Posted April 1, 2004 Author Share Posted April 1, 2004 What does the Secretary of State do? Think Colin Powell. Probably the most important cabinet position, they usually are the ones that schooze with foreign countries to get what we want pushed forward on the agendas of the world, including the UN. There's much more to it then that but that's the short answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of Clinton's strong points. Having family overseas, I often heard about how much he was liked there (Europe). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapkomet Posted April 1, 2004 Author Share Posted April 1, 2004 Hmm, I wonder which Bush aide started that rumour If Bush's campaign is that stupid, they certainly won't win in '04. If this is serious, then Kerry will get votes just because of Clinton. They love that guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 The thing is, as bad of a President as Clinton was, I have no doubt that he would be an excellent SOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 He is still too controversial. I could see Kerry floating a Mrs. Clinton rumour. Kerry needs left leaning GOPers to support his campaign. He will not get that by standing too close to Mr. Clinton. I could see Kerry using BC as a kind of "Super Ambassador" in key hot spots around the world. It would preserve Clinton's Presidential aire. Dropping down to SoS would take away from the Presidential mystique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
