John McCain(Secretary of Defense)

[beesley]

Texas is the biggest state so far that I haven't picked anyone from yet. Until now - Veronica Escobar will be the Secretary of Homeland Security. This also provides Hispanic representation in the cabinet.

[LastMcGovernite]

Does anyone else want to get their pick in before we close up this round tonight?

[LastMcGovernite]

Time for Round 4 of your cabinet draft.

Remember that for all picks, the following rules apply:
1. You cannot pick any individual who has already been drafted.
2. The intent is to make a cabinet for some time during the 2010s. As per our new rules put in place to avoid nitpicking, you can pick anyone who was a substantive public figure in the 2010s. Even if your pick passed away during or after the 2010s (such as John McCain or John Lewis or Kay Hagan), it's still legal.
3. You cannot draft someone to a position that they held in real life. For example, you cannot pick Rex Tillerson to be your Secretary of State, but you can pick him to be your Secretary of Energy.

As I stated earlier, if you want to "redo" one of your first two picks in light of these new rules, you may do so. Also, if you missed a pick from an earlier round, you can make it at any time after.

If you would like to join in the game, I'd be happy to welcome you. PM me for instructions.

For the fourth round:

The Fonz, KaiserDave, Gassman, and OldSchoolRepublican will pick from the Northeast.
BattistaMinola, Clinton/Kaine Voter, and Our Enemy the Irish will pick from the South.
UtahNeoLib, Beesley, and myself will pick from the Midwest.
NY Express, RGM2609, Ishan, and Senator OBD will pick from the West.

A. The Northeast (ME, NH, VT, CT, MA, RI, NY, NJ, PA, DE, MD, VA, DC)
B. The South (NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, MS, LA, AR, TN, KY, WV, TX, OK) + Territories
C. The Midwest (OH, IN, IL, MI, WI, MN, IA, MO, ND, SD, KS, NE)
D. The West (CA, OR, WA, AK, HI, NV, AZ, NM, ID, MT, CO, WY, UT).


Remember that you will need to pick a...

1. Secretary of State
2. Secretary of the Treasury
3. Secretary of Defense
4. Attorney General
5. Secretary of the Interior
6. Secretary of Agriculture
7. Secretary of Commerce

[S019]

Former Vice President Al Gore for energy, I think his climate activism, should make him count as a major individual, if he doesn't work, then my backup is former West Virginia Senator Jay Rockefeller for HHS.

[beesley]

Tim Walz for Secretary of Defense. Federal experience, executive experience, and the highest ranking enlisted man to have served in Congress.

Another person I might have picked given the constraints I have on myself, along with Peter DeFazio whom was picked earlier. The draft aspect of this is working well.

Anyway, Missouri Rep and former Kansas City Mayor Emanuel Cleaver at HUD please.

[LastMcGovernite]

Former Vice President Al Gore for energy, I think his climate activism, should make him count as a major individual, if he doesn't work, then my backup is former West Virginia Senator Jay Rockefeller for HHS.

Gore, under the new guidelines, is certainly a credible public figure in the 2010s. My only worry is that Gassman had drafted him and I vetoed it when the earlier rules were in place. I’ll pencil Gore in for you, but if Gassman wants to claim him to replace an earlier pick, we’ll go with your second choice. Sound fair?

Good pick!

My advice would be just to assign Gore to Gass for the department of his choice with his current pick, actually, and allow S019 to claim Rockefeller.
