Obama's cabinet

[cured]

As far as Richardson goes, I believe he was offered his choice given that Clinton was going to agree to be Secretary of State. I don't think Richardson would have accepted another position if State wasn't a done deal. He may have picked commerce because perhaps Obama already has someone in mind for Energy.

With Detroit looking more and more doomed, the opportunity is there for Obama to take the massive workforce needing jobs and funneling them into green industries. That would would be a handle that Richardson could really make good use of, given his knowledge of the energy sector.

Hillary is a good state pick, though. Now that she's "on the team" and is a very quick study, she'll fall in line a bit easier than perhaps most expect.

I really want to know the thought process behind this selection. And I would say Obama discussing the real reasons behind it fall under the category of transparent government.

Just from the top of my head.

This thought process stems from the fact of the U.S. having a monetary surplus when the Clinton's left office. Just a random thought off the top of my head though.
