It looks like Hillary might get that 3:00am phone call after all.

Heck, yes, put Richardson in there. He''ll prove
as effective as Sanchez and Gonzalez.

Possibly (to some people), but I wasn''''t elected to "serve the people", now was I?

No, thank God, you weren''t. And by the sound of some of your postings, your IQ would never allow you to even consider it.

Hillary is a much better choice. Richardson already showed his true colors during the campaign, he''s a brown noser.

Another thing: since you gringoids stole Texas, you let the state become populated with some of the most conservative, redneck, backwards-thinking sort of "''Mericans" you all (believe you pronounce it "y''all") produce up yonder. Jeez.. Talk about being far from God, and too close to the United States. LOL. Richardson, again, has the curriculum vitae. Hope Obama picks him.

I am an "American white man", as well as a Mexican citizen. So cut the ***. Richardson would make an excellent secretary of State PRECISELY because he has--like Obama--what is called "other-culture experience". Added to his impressive resumi (yes, use the accent) in matters diplomatic, you''ve thus got a winning combination. Having said that, Ms. Clinton would also be a fine choice. She is a bright, aggressive and intelligent woman. You Americans spend too much time worrying about race and colour. Why not stop selling guns and using drugs for a while? THAT would help us in Mixico. Your first REAL foreign policy decision that is useful. Think globally, act locally. Cheers from your NAFTA partner of the South. P.S. Many of us in the PRD don''t like NAFTA either...

Here''s the sweet part of the plan...

Hillary spends eight years as Secretary of State.
Then eight years as President.

You gotta love that idea!

Choosing Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State is a big mistake on my part. I voted for change and this is no change at all. McCain would have been a better man.
