In this post I mentioned that in his March 4 two-minute radio commentary Matthew Rothschild suggested choices for Kerry’s cabinet.

My nominees:
Helen Caldicott
Karen Kwaitkowski
Stan Goff
Attorney General: Patricia J. Williams
My nominees:
Elouise Cobell
Jeffrey St. Clair
Secretary of Agriculture: Frances Moore Lappe
My nominees:
Pratap Chatterjee
Ben Cohen
My nominees:
Nathan Newman
Harold Meyerson
Secretary of Health and Human Services: Dr. Heather Boushey
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development: ACORN should be consulted on this choice.
Secretary of Transportation: These folks might have some ideas.
Secretary of Energy: Ralph Nader
Secretary of Education: Noam Chomsky
Secretary of Veterans’ Affairs: Max Cleland
Secretary of Homeland Security: James Bovard

U.S. Trade Representative: Soren Ambrose
Vice President of the United States: Rep. Ron Paul
White House Chief of Staff: Alexander Cockburn
