The Expert Consultants Agree With Me Re Romney's VP

It is being widely reported that a  Repulsican official familiar with the thinking of the Romney campaign says that the Governor is seeking an incredibly boring white guy to be his Vice-Presidential running mate.   There are a lot of names being bandied about, including that of my own home state's well regarded and respected Sen. Richard Burr.  Vanity Fair published a 'short' list of potentials that is anything but short.  At the top of that list, and I mean at the very top is the man whom I said weeks ago should be Romney's VP.  That man is Arizona's good senator, Jon Kyl.
  JON KYL 4 VICE-PRESIDENT
I picked this man not because he's a boring white guy, which, by and large, he is.  I didn't pick him for geographical balance, which he does provide, by being from a state that is pretty much at the country's opposite diagonal corner from Romney's Massachusetts.  I did pick him, in part, for political/philosophical balance, as National Journal  rates him as the Senate's fourth most conservative Repulsican and because Romney is still having problems convincing the base that he himself is conservative on his own merits.  Gov. Romney can surely sense the good sense in picking a running mate with these ticket balancing qualities, much like Jack Kennedy did in 1960.  However, Gov. Romney would not have to worry about this man's personal political ambitions assassinating him.  Sen. Kyl is retiring this cycle and not seeking a fourth term in the Senate, which he would surely win if he were running for reelection.  He has been quoted as saying that he has no higher political aspirations, like the Presidency, a Cabinet post or high ambassadorship.  But he couched that by adding that he would be open to serving as Vice-President with the right President and under the right circumstances.  I can't imagine a righter President or a more right set of circumstances to whom and to which to offer his experience and expertise.
I picked Jon Kyl because he is imminently most qualified for the job of Vice-President among all of the incredibly boring white guys being discussed by the observing pundits,  as well as perhaps by the participating politician and his hack consultants and advisers. He is also most and best qualified among non-boring, non-male and non-Caucasoid candidates who may be considered or are being considered.
The Constitution says the Vice-President has two things to do.  The foremost, found in Article II Section 6, is to be ready to have the powers and duties of the Presidency devolve upon him if the President is unable to discharge those powers and duties, because of removal or resignation from office, death, or inability.  It is highly unlikely that this part of the job would ever come up.  But because it might, it is a sensible extrapolation that the Vice-President should be a close confidant and consultant to the President.  Though only one Vice-President in recent history and perhaps in all of the country's history has had such standing, Kyl would be a good man to have help formulate and implement the most important policies of this next administration.  Because of his specific committee experience in the Senate in areas such as security, finance and the judiciary, Kyl would be an excellent adviser to the President on these contemporarily vital issues.
The one on-going duty that the Constitution assigns to the Vice-President is to preside over the Senate and to cast tie breaking votes in that chamber.  This November's elections are going to give us a Senate which will be almost, or perhaps exactly evenly divided in terms of parties and/or political philosophy.  Kyl has held leadership positions for much of his eighteen years in the Senate, including his present posting as Minority Whip, making him the second ranking Repulsican, responsible for his party's members' attendance and persuading them to vote in such and such a way.  Time magazine listed him as one of its 100 most influential people in the world for his persuasive role in the Senate.  That persuasive nature, coupled with his specific experience in important policy areas and his potential conservative vote would be vital to the country's survival when the Senate considers such matters as repealing Obamacare (or should we call it Soetorocare?),  Dodd-Frank, and any myriad other rules, regs, and laws handed down from on high by this current socialist regime and by similar previous others.  He would be instrumental in getting the Senate to 'do right' in such matters as tax reform, immigration, border protection and homeland security, as well as getting proper Justices approved for the Supreme Court. 
Of course, selecting Jon Kyl to be the Vice-Presidential running mate will have little or no real impact upon the campaign in and of itself.   To truly engage the base, to interest the independents, and to take it to Soetoro and his fellow socialists, Romney needs to name Newt Gingrich as his Secretary of State and Herman Cain as his Secretary of Commerce at the same time he proclaims Kyl to be VP.  He can wait until later to name the rest of his Cabinet, as I proposed them in an earlier article.  But he needs, needs, needs to get those two out on the campaign trail in official capacities to verbally take down the despots dirtying up and destroying our White House.

I'm Embarrassed By NC Again

As the last in a line of North Carolinians that goes back beyond the American Revolution, I harbor deep feelings for this state and its people.  Sometimes, I am as proud as proud can be.  Then, there are weeks like this one, coming just a couple of weeks after a majority of state voters confirmed that North Carolina is, even if the country isn't, a theocracy.
NC is in the national news again in a triple jeopardy situation.  I am so ashamed.

                     
Firstly, we have Tonya Dixon-Neely, the hyphenatedly named, hyphenated American, who is supposed to be a proud member of the 'profession' of teaching.  But like so many current ill informed, ill educated, probably ill conceived, illiberal liberal 'educators' who indoctrinate rather than instruct, Dixon-Neely has shown herself to be an Obamabotic ignoramus,  like the grand majority of union protected, government school indoctrinaires.
Besides being union protected, Dixon-Neely is doubly protected, being Negroid.  She is supposedly being 'punished' by being suspended.  As it is a suspension  with pay, I am sure that this dumb mass Dummycrap is having a grand vacation, at the taxpayers' expense, reveling over how she's getting over.   The student invloved, nor his parents want Dixon-Neely fired.  Well, I DO!!!  And I want her barred from working in ANY tax payer supported school for all time.  I don't even want her working as a custodian or cafeterian.   This kind of Marxist mush head has no business being in contact with students in an institution of learning.
I really wish that I hadn't finally found that one picture that I was able to find of Dixon-Neely.  She appears to be a bright and beautiful woman.  But appearances do deceive, don't they?  I would love to have been able, in good conscience, to post the following image which I found, labeled as "a composite of what Tonya Dixon-Neely or any other mindless Obama-bot teacher might look like".  It is amazingly close to what I pictured in my mind before finding the one image of her that I could find, which makes her look more like a prostitute than a teacher.

mak
As Dixon-Neely is in a protected class within a protected class, there are those who are already coming to the defense of her indefensibility.  And they show their continuing and constant stupidity by misspelling their new found heroine's name. 


  

Secondly, we have this kooky, Caucasoid Christian preacher advocating that we lock up the lesbians and homosexuals inside an electrified fence until they die off.  This type of ignorance is even stupider than that of Dixon-Neely's.  As a North Carolinian, as a Caucasoid and as a past preacher, I am mortified to have anything in common with Charles Worley.  He exemplifies everything that is ignorant, unknowing, unaware, unacquainted, unapprised, unconversant, uninformed, uncultivated, unversed, uninstructed, untaught, uninitiated, untutored, unschooled, unguided, unenlightened and witless. I do wonder if he doth protest too much? 
In all of the years of ed-you-ka-shun to which I know that these two 'professional' people were exposed, were neither of them exposed to proper English?  Of course, in Dixon-Neely's case, that is known as "white English", so we's not sposed to dis her by axin bout that kind of thang.  And I thought that my drunken, hung over Negroid high school science teacher, from whom the class learned nothing but how to quietly play rummy on the board was bad. 



Of course, the epitome of embarrassment is John Edwards.  I still feel the guilt of knowing that he is all my fault.  I humbly and whole heartedly apologize to my fellow North Carolinians and Americans.  If I hadn't squandered and screwed up my youth, I would have been in position in 1998 to take that Senate seat as a Libertarian, before they became the Liebetarians.  It would have been a simple matter of having the testicles to appeal to my fellow state residents by simply asking, "Do you want to keep this fat, jowly Demoncat turned Repulsican professional political party hack representing you?"  and "Do you want to replace Lauch Faircloth with another lying, cheating, thieving, conniving, shyster charlatan, lackey lawyer who is a dyed in the wool, to the depth of his soulless soul Demoncat who wants to be a professional political party hack?" The Libertarian candidate that year, Barbara Howe, didn't have the ovaries to ask.  If she had, I'd bet that she'd have gotten more than just two per cent of the vote.
The one thing that confuses me about all the money involved with this harlot of a whore and her baseborn bastard baby is why couldn't John just reach into his deep pockets and cover it himself?  He was, as he is, a multi-millionaire from his days of hoodwinking jerk brained juries by channeling dead babies and other such shenanigans that I'm sure that he made very believable, as he is the consummate prevaricator.  I'd suppose that that is why his lawyers in this case didn't put him on the stand. An attorney can't present a witness that he or she knows is going to lie and everyone knows that John Edwards can only speak by lying.   The same is probably true of his lawyer daughter, too.
I can't WAIT to see how ashamed and embarrassed I'm going to be when NC hosts the Dummycrap/ Demoncat convention in a few months.   But I WILL be proud of my state again in November when we will have learned our lesson, as we did with Jimma Carter, and award our fifteen electoral votes to someone other than the half breed, Bolshevik buffoon, Barry Soetoro.

Here Are Some Easy Ways to Cut Spending

Most every, if not every elected official in the executive and legislative branches have a Chief of Staff.  If these officers would do their jobs, as they were hired to do, part of those job descriptions would be such that each one of them would serve as the chief of his or her staff, as Jack Kennedy was the last President to do so.  Such a personnel policy would save upwards of $100 million a year.  I once heard that that is next to nothing to the Senate Finance Committee, but it's a buttload of money to most of us.  And those staffs, without their chiefs of, would consist only of clerical/communicative administrative assistants, which were once called and paid as secretaries, bookkeepers, typists, receptionists and clerks, of varying kinds, like file and mail.  Congressional representatives would have no legislative directors, no advisers, no counsels, general or otherwise.  The President's advisers would be the principle officers in each of the executive departments, as mandated by Article 2, Section 2.  And there should be fewer of those executive departments than currently exist.  And for actually doing the work for which they were elected and appointed to do, these executives and legislators should be paid more than their current salaries, as they would actually be earning them.  And you can figure that without all of these nameless staffers to do the work, there would be a whole lot less work done, so that we wouldn't be constantly saddled with such monstrous, megamaniacal masterworks as The New Deal, The Great Society and The Fundamental Transformation, better known to the dumb masses as Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid and Obamacare. 
In recently researching my newly redistricted Congresswoman, I was looking at her committee assignments.  On one of the committee's web page is listed the committee staff, which included a director, a deputy director, several counsels of varying ranks and titles and several members of the professional staff, which are, I'd suppose, the probably necessary clerical workers.   Of course, they're not necessary, as all business of Congress should be conducted by the individual and the committee of the whole. 
I can only assume that all Congressional committees have such or similar staffs.  Until we can eliminate the long standing seniority superiority/committee construct of Congress, we can immediately eliminate all of these fancy titled positions.  As for the people laid-off from these unaccountable occupations, those with law licenses will not be eligible for unemployment benefits, because as licensed lawyers, each one of them is employed automatically and immediately by simply 'hanging out his or her shingle'.
Totally eliminating the Department of Education would lay-off about 5000 employees, while saving the taxpayers close to a hundred billion dollars annually.  While not allowing these employees to ever hold any unelected governmental job other than classroom teacher, they would be eligible for up to nine months of unemployment benefits.  The sub-cabinet level Small Business Administration would be tasked to make matching loans to any of these 'educators'  making individual and group investments in start-ups of new, private, accredited schools.
These aren't, on their own and by themselves, the ways and means to the fiscal sanity of balanced budgets and perpetual prosperity, but they're a start.

       

Here's an Idea for the Presidential Debates

Now that we can pretty much safely assume that Repulsican Mitt Romney is going to be the other major party candidate running against Demoncat/Dummycrap, Baracka Hussein Obama, we can begin to think about upcoming debates, in the style of Lincoln-Douglas (though those were Senatorial debates), Kennedy-Nixon and Reagan-Carter.  With style equal to or greater than Obama, and substance superlatively superior to Obama's, Romney should be able to out debate the lying, cheating, thieving, conniving, shyster, charlatan Chicagoland lawyer without a law license, even with the disadvantage of Barry reading his teleprompter, while Mitt responds on his own.  But as Romney insists on being a proper and polite politician, as exampled by his statement that Obama's a nice guy, when he is, in actuality, the epitome of evil, Romney, on his own and by himself in a one on one debate will have his ass handed to him by the Muslim Marxist.  Though Romney is adept at under the table dirty tricks, i.e., Ginger White, he hasn't the chutzpah to be up front, open and honest enough to publicly and proudly proclaim the above stated facts about Obama, or that he is a baseborn, Bolshevik buffoon illegitimately conceived by a Mau Mau Muslim Marxist and an air-headed, anarchist slut, and that he is more of a Malaysian Muslim than an American Christian.  Or that for whatever Christian credentials Obama tries to claim, his Black Liberation Theology is waaaay more radical, irrational and unreasonable than Mitt's Mormonism.
  vs         
That's why Romney needs to go ahead and name his cabinet, to help him campaign in more than just a "Unity Tour", to face off against Obama and his cabinet kooks in a series of oval table debates.  Imagine an 'economic cabinet' debate with Obama, Biden, Geithner and Tom Bryson on one side of the table, facing Romney, Jon Kyl, Prof. Walter Williams and Herman Cain.

I Love My State, But She Surely Does Embarrass Me Sometimes

As I am fond of boasting, I am an eighth generation North Carolinian Son of the American Revolution.  Except for a brief period in the 70's I have lived in North Carolina my entire life and plan to continue to do so until my death, when I hope someone shall erect a marker in my memory in the old Stoner Cemetery in southern Alamance County, just east of 'downtown' Bellemont.
I shan't try to enumerate all of the 'things' of which I'm proud about this state.  There are just too many.  But there are instances and personalities that and who have shamed me as a North Carolinian, like so many, too many of our politicians like Easley, Nifong, Perdue, Edwards, Black, and even Helms.  At least in Jesse Helms' case, the embarrassment was caused by political incorrectness and public insensitivity, rather than criminality, as is the case with the others.  The others, of course, are a bunch of Demoncats and Dummycraps, whereas Sen. Helms was just a loud mouthed Repulsican.  And truth be told, I was never really ashamed of or embarrassed by Sen.Helms.  Guess I just caught myself almost being politically correct.  Now, that's shameful, for someone who has always held that the primary plank of any political/philosophical platform has to be: NO POLITICAL CORRECTNESS!
Presently, I suspect that my fellow North Carolinians are going to embarrass me again, like never before.  On May 8th, as part of the primary elections, there will be a proposed state constitutional amendment for the voters to consider.   It reads: "Marriage between one man and one woman is the only domestic legal union that shall be valid or recognized in this state.  This section does not prohibit a private party from entering into contracts with another private party, nor does this section prohibit courts from adjudicating the rights of private parties pursuant to such contracts."
Marriage is but a contract.  It is an agreement between consensual parties to form a partnership of domesticity, designed to enhance those parties' pursuit of happiness, one of the "self evident..inalienable rights" proclaimed in the state constitution's article one, section one.  Marriage is but an arrangement that is as old as the history of mankind.  Historically and traditionally, much of the marriage concept was to declare a man's dominion over and practical ownership of a woman, and that woman's subjugation to that man.  Thus, the woman's vow to "love, honor and obey".  Thankfully, that last verb has been largely stricken from most contemporary marriage vows, as marriage is supposed to be an agreement between equals.
This entire amendment madness is nothing more than newly elected Repulsican politicians kowtowing to the religious fundamentalists of the state, allowing them to force their doctrinal dogma on the entire population of the state.  Morality can't be legislated and it is a prime function of government in a free society to protect the individual rights of members of minorities against the tyranny of the masses.  While homosexuality may be abhorrent, disgusting and vile to many, if not most, it is not a crime, in that it causes no demonstrable loss or harm through force or fraud.
Many, if not most of my conservative contemporaries are dead set against any governmental action or inaction that might be construed as support for homosexuality.  Many of these people doth protest too much, I think.  MLK's niece, Alveda King, of whom I am a fan, equates gay marriage with genocide.  Jason Lewis proclaims that gay marriage will lead to people marrying their cats.  My libertarian hero, Neal Boortz says that homosexuals presently enjoy the same right to marry as heterosexuals.  Gay marriage could, I suppose, lead to humanity's genocide, if everyone practiced homosexuality, thus preventing the procreation of the species.  Nothing can ever lead to marrying cats, or any other animal, as animals don't have the reason and rationality to enter into contracts.  And while it is true, as Boortz points out, that homosexuals have the same ability as heterosexuals to marry a person of the other gender, the difference is that they, the homosexuals don't have the ability to marry one of the gender they prefer as a sexual partner.
It all comes down to sex, sex, sex, sex, sex.  There is always going to be a per centage of any population, generally a small per centage, wherein the men would rather put their penises into another man's rectum than in a woman's vagina, and the women would rather perform cunnilingus than fellatio.  As abhorrent and abnormal as the majority may find these practices, it's none of our damned business, as public policy, as long as they don't do it in the public square, so to speak, or use force or fraud to achieve those wants and wishes.  For all of the rhymes and reasons to support or oppose this amendment, the most basic tenet to be considered is that we all are supposed to enjoy equal protection under the law to do any and every 'thing' we wish, so long as that 'thing' does not cause demonstrable loss or harm to another through force or fraud.  I don't see homosexual marriage, or bigamous or polygamous marriage between consenting parties causing me, or anybody else demonstrable loss or harm.  As marriage is nothing more than a state/societal sanctioned religious rite, and as some established religions are okay with homosexual marriage, this amendment could be interpreted as religious repression, which is, of course, prohibited by the federal constitution's first amendment and NC's constitution's article one, section thirteen.
In the final analysis, let the homo's enjoy the same right to marry whom they choose, as the hetero's do.  Constitutional amendments are largely a messy and unnecessary practice, especially in a state which has the history of rewriting its constitution every hundred years or so, anyway.

                 

Mitt's Won the Nomination. Can He Win the Election?

It seems to be accepted that Mitt Romney is going to be the Repulsican nominee, which he should have been in '08.  If he had been, I think that he would have handily beaten the Bolshevik buffoon who easily defeated the hapless John McCain't make up his mind if he's conservative or liberal.  In a race between two relative unknowns, Romney would have come out on top, with presentation and style equivalent to or better than Obama's and policies and principles far superior to Baracka's.  And he would have eliminated all of the votes Barry got from people voting for him based solely on his epidermal pigmentation, by choosing as his Vice-Presidential running mate, the man I wrote in for Veep, Herman Cain.
Now, four years later, with Barry as an incumbent, with that bully pulpit and a billion dollars to spend on negative campaigning, Mitt is not going to have an easy task in ridding our Republic of this Marxist menace.  He can't do it alone, on his own for several reasons.  He's not going to be able to out-negative Obama, because Obama is just too good at it, as he's proven time and again throughout his pusillanimous political career.  Romney is good at it, as he probably proved by believably being responsible for the finding and financing of that lying Atlanta harlot, Ginger White.  But he, or maybe nobody, is as good at it as Obama.  He's not going to be able to win the trust of the true conservative faction on his own.  And he doesn't have the chutzpah to stand up and state the basic, brazen facts that Barry is a lying, cheating, thieving, conniving communist committed to converting America away from constitutional capitalism.
There is one way Romney can triumph in all three of those instances.  He has to constantly and consistently campaign with a message of positive reinforcement of what he and his administration will do to undo all of the damage that Obama has managed to dump on America in just one term, on top of a century of enroaching liberal lunacy. The next two obstacles can be overcome by going ahead and announcing the people he will pick to help him run the country in such a way that will return us to constitutional conservatism and perpetual prosperity and who will call out Obama and his cohorts on their failed policies and practices. 
Here are the men and women Romney needs to name as his administration, so that they can go head to head and toe to toe, campaigning against and debating with the fools working with and for Obama.
Vice-President.  Marco Rubio, Marco Rubio, Marco Rubio.  That's the name I keep hearing as the person to pick to be one heartbeat away from the Presidency.  Rubio is so thought to be what is needed to capture more Hispanic votes and more Florida votes.  I have a better idea for that, which I'll get to in a bit.  But is political expediency the poor, pitiful and primary purpose for picking people to run the Republic?   I, as I believe many Americans are, am sick to death of first term senators rising to such heights of import.  It is the primary purpose of the Vice-President to run the Senate.  An elevated freshman senator is not the person for that job.  The person for that job is a three termer who is the second ranking Repulsican in the Senate and rated by National Journal as the fourth most conservative Senator.  He is not seeking reelection this year, which he would surely win.  He has said that the only office in which he would have an interest is that of Vice-President.  That man is the good Arizona Senator, Jon Kyl.
   
Secretary of State.  Hands down, no doubt about it, fourth in line to the Presidency should go to Newt Gingrich.  With his doctoral understanding and knowledge of history, and his outstanding oratorial abilities, he's a natural for the job.  And in any head to head debate with the current Secretary, he'd handle her as he did her doofus/rapist husband in the 90's.

Secretary of the Treasury.  To expose Tim Geitner as the tax cheating idiot that he is, and to implement sound fiscal policy, there is not another American better suited for this posting than columnist/commentator and Economics Professor Emeritus, Walter Williams.

Secretary of Defense.  I thought of four star general David Petreus, but we might be better off leaving him to run the CIA.  I therefore nominate four star admiral William McRaven, commander of the Navy Seals.

Attorney General.  ANYbody would be better than the race pimp we have now.  But to confront the likes of Eric Holder, we need another Negroid American, but one with a sense of pride in professionalism and responsibility to duty.  For style, I'd go with Michelle Bernard.  For substance, I'd go with Stephen Carter.

   
As eighth in line to the Presidency, I would want Sarah Palin as the last Secretary of the Interior.  Her primary directive would be to reorganize the cabinet department into The Domestic Affairs Division within the State Department, on equal hierarchical status with the Foreign Service.

Secretary of Agriculture.  I pick my own state's Agriculture Secretary and real life farmer/agri-businessman and president elect of the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture, Steve Troxler.  Much like Palin, he would be given the directive to downsize that departmental bureaucracy into a division of the Commerce Department.














To be the most powerful and influential Secretary of Commerce since Herbert Hoover was the third man to hold the office about ninety years ago, I pick Herman Cain to oversee the massive reorganization and downsizing of present cabinet level departments of Agriculture, Labor, HUD, and Energy into divisions of the Commerce Department.  Politicians from Rick Perry to Obama have said that Commerce is a department that needs to be eliminated.  But as commerce is one of the few areas of endeavor that the Constitution grants to the government, it is a department that needs to be kept, but in a way that doesn't go beyond its Constitutional mandate.  Herman has the real world experience and expertise to oversee such a massive undertaking and in the final analysis, after governmental reorganization, he would be eighth in line to the Presidency, though he should be President and Romney should have this position.

Secretary of Labor.  Since he's such a supporter of big labor in his home state, while purporting to be a conservative, let Rick Santorum be that department's last cabinet level executive.

Secretary Of Health and Human Services.  With the fiscal sense to know that this department is perhaps the most behemoth within the total bureaucracy, Dr. Ron Paul would be the best pick to reorganize this department, as its last Secretary, into the the new Department of Science and Medicine, over which he'll preside as the first cabinet level Surgeon General of the United States, overseeing functions that matter and eliminating ones that the government has no business performing.

Secretary of HUD.  Would be a good one for Pawlenty.

As the Constitution mandates the government to establish and maintain post roads, we need a Department of Transportation.  And it needs to be a 21st century organization that even the brillliant Ben Franklin could not envision when he was basically our first Secretary of Transportation when he was our first Postmaster General.  I have found three capable and conscientious women to take over from dumb ass Ray LaHood.  Six term West Virginia Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito serves on the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and its Subcommittees on Highways and Transit and Railroads, Pipelines and Hazardous Materials.  With no real experience or expertise in transportation, long time Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen would be a good pick to shore up Hispanic and Florida votes, if that's all we want from our political appointees.  And I like both of these women's libertarian positions on social morality issues.  Perhaps the best pick would be Oklahoma governor, Mary Fallin, who also served on the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure during her two terms in Congress, which would allow the other two to keep their important voices voting on Capitol Hill..

  Reps. Capito and Ros Gov. Fallin

Secretary of Energy.  This is another cabinet appointment with the historical significance of being the last one.  When I discovered this fellow, my reaction was to figure him as Secretary of Transportation.  But it turns out that the Texas Railroad Commission has much of nothing to do with trains or other means of travel and transport, but with oil and natural gas.  Michael Williams is a tenured member of that board, serving as Chairman twice during that period.  He recently resigned from the Commission to seek one of Texas' new Congressional seats.  Even though he is a highly popular politician in Texas,  Williams faces party competition in the May 29th primary.  With experience and expertise in energy matters, including serving on an advisory board to the Department of Energy, Williams might better serve his Arlington area potential constituents and the nation as part of Romney's cabinet.

Secretary of Education.  The department everyone's been promising to eliminate for decades.  I believe that Charles Butler, of The New Coalition for Economic and Social Change could be the man to shut it down.  Being from Chicago, he could be a real reverse reflection to Obama's  Chicago style.  As a caveat to eliminating this ridiculous bureaucratic behemoth, all departmental employees will never be allowed to accept any governmental employment, other than classroom teacher.

Secretary of Veterans Affairs.  A very, very important function of our government, but hardly needs a separate cabinet level bureaucracy.  Like our newest cabinet level department, DHS, it needs to be incorporated into the Defense Department.  As its next and last Secretary, I nominate Lt. Gen. Patricia Horoho, RN, the first woman and first non-physician to serve as Army Surgeon General.  

As our last Secretary of Homeland Security which has always been a bureaucratic boondoggle, I pick Tom del Becarro, of the Conservative Hispanic Society and Chairman of the California Repulsican Party.  He achieved that post despite the bachelor's penchant for the ladies, appropriately and otherwise.  As a primary function of DHS is border control and del Becarro is a strong advocate for border security and a supporter of legal immigration, he'd be a great choice, for practical and political reasons. 

I thought of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, but OMG, he turns 80 on Flag Day this year.  He is a national hero and should be a federal figure, perhaps as the Commisioner of Customs and Border Protection.  That position is presently vacant, with Deputy Commisioner David Aguilar, an Obama administration appointee, serving as acting Commissioner.  Let him stay on as the Sheriff's lieutenant.
            
As for other cabinet level appointees...White House Chief of Staff.  Romney, minch up and be the first President since Kennedy to serve as your own COS.  Did 24  teach us nothing?  It's always the Chief of Staff who mucks things up.
Administrator of the EPA...Ivar Giaver, Nobel scientist who recognizes and proclaims the truth about global warming.  He is about as old as dirt, but we do have older denizens on Capitol Hill.  If he doesn't live that long, I'd say Dr. Roy Spencer, Principal Research Scientist at University of Alabama-Huntsville.
 
    Prof. Giaver
Director of OMB.  Gone.  That's what the President, Vice-President, the Secretary of Treasury and Treasurer of the U.S.  are supposed to do.
U.S. Trade Representative.  Gone.  That's what the Secretaries of State and Commerce do. 
U.N. Ambassador.  How about John Bolton, if he'd want it.  If he didn't, throw a bone to Jon Huntsman and appoint Bolton as Solicitor General.
 
Council of Economic Advisers.  Again, that's what the Prez, the Veep and the Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce are supposed to be doing for their six figure salaries and lifetime security.
Secretary of SBA.  No longer cabinet level pay grade.  But I would advance the name of Elaine Chao, for her background in family business, government and non-profit, not to mention her ethnicity.

Other positions of import...make Rudy Giuliani The U.S. Attorney.


Press Secretary..J.C. Watts

As part of this new government, I would like to see MLK's niece, Alveda King nominated and selected to be Chaplain of one of the chambers of Congress, if either post is vacant or make her a part of the U.S. Federal Chaplain Service, as long as she'll quit proclaining gay marriage to be genocide.

And we've got some old timers sitting on the Supreme bench.  Romney will need to nominate good replacements, if vacancies do occur, like Dale Wainwright of the Texas Supreme Court and Janice Rogers Brown, Federal Appeals Court Judge. 

Now that's an Administration and a Judiciary with experience and expertise that should be able to accomplish the work of America, especially if Tea Party conservatives can take more House seats and make Michele Bachmann Speaker of the House and second in line to the Presidency, in place of the current RINO Repulsican John Boehner. 
And to really make it work, Republicans and Repulsicans need to regain a Senate majority.  That would have put RINO Richard Lugar third in line to the Presidency, if his Tea Party challenger Richard Mourdock hadn't handed him his backside in the May 8th primary.  Now, Orrin Hatch of Utah, who is also facing a Tea Party challenge, would be the senior Senate Repulsican if he manages to turn back that challenge and win his seventh term.  If Hatch also loses his seat, Thad Cochran of Mississippi would become the  Senate President Pro Tem
   Sen. Hatch   Sen. Cochran
Not only would this be a government of direction and determination, it would be a government of diversity, based on individual merit and principle, rather than on diversity for diversity's sake.  We can only sincerely hope for real change.
