Obama makes history....AGAIN!!!

Barack Obama has finally announced his full National Security team:

Hillary Clinton, U.S. Senator from New York and former First Lady, will serve as Secretary of State.

Secretary Robert Gates, the current Secretary of Defense, will continue to serve in that role.

Eric Holder, former Deputy Attorney General and a former United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, will serve as Attorney General.---First African American!!

Janet Napolitano, Governor and former U.S. Attorney for Arizona, will serve as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.

Dr. Susan E. Rice, a Senior Foreign Policy Advisor to the Obama for America campaign, a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, and former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, will serve as Ambassador to the United Nations. (no relation 2 Condaleeza Rice!!)

General Jim Jones, USMC (Ret), former Allied Commander, Europe, and Commander of the United States European Command, will serve as National Security Advisor.

Barack's national security team has been assembled to represent all elements of American power, diplomacy, and leadership that will be vital in overcoming the challenges of the 21st century.

Obama said he’s been reading a lot of the late Abraham Lincoln’s writings to gain wisdom & insight from such a wise leader.

He has also mirrored Lincoln’s approach to cabinent choices by having a diverse group of people as opposed to the ‘group think’ approach which picks a cabinent of people of like ideologies.

This is a good way to go when making important national security decisions b/c discussion can occur.
This is much better than Bush’s approach; what is the point of being surrounded by a bunch of ‘yes men!!’ DUH Politics as usual....

I am excited…..dont know about u guys!!....Good job Barack O'Drama!!! ;-)

Peace & Love.
