Do you believe that President Elect Obama is violating the Constitution?

Today, MSNBC reported that in the Constitution it states that no member of Congress can be appointed to a federal job if that position has received a pay increase. The position of Sec of State did receive a pay raise this past January. This means that if Sen Clinton is appointed to Sec of State, Obama will be violating the Constitution. What do you think?

Is Clinton a good pick for Sec of State for Obama?

This question is being asked 100 times a day. Here is my answer, Yes. I believe that Sen Clinton will be a very good Sec of State. She is respected around the world and she will be a team player. This also shows the confidence and talent of our next President. Regardless if you voted for Clinton or Obama, this is a good move because it shows that the new President wants to unite the country and move us forward. This match up will also bring together the now two most powerful political families in the country. With these two forces joined together, the administration will have the economic blessings of the 90's and the judgement and leadership of the President-Elect.

The American Economy

Like many Americans, I am worried about our country and our economy. I do have faith in the President Elect but we are in some troubling times. A lot of people are asking and wondering, why are we in this mess? Some have said why but others have not been direct. We are in this because (in my opinion) of the money that has been spent in Iraq (without the raising of taxes and using borrowed money), and the lack of oversight from the current administration. Today, the Dow Jones fell 444 points, and the auto-companies want a bail out of 25 million. I believe that they should get a loan with interest (just like us when we by a car or house) and the interest that is paid should go to the American People. They should also be, Like President-Elect Obama stated, someone in the White House to over look this loan that will be given to them. This is the time for America to shine and we must be that beacon to the world.

The Immortality of President Clinton

I believe that Former President Bill Clinton has achieved something that most ex-presidents have not been able to do, making their presidency live on will they are not in office. President-elect Obama (whom I support and admire) has chosen most of his cabinet with former Clinton Aides. This shows that how effective and powerful the eight year Clinton Administration was and still is. The legacy of Bill Clinton has the possibility of lasting for almost 20 years
