If any of you remember from wikileaks, she was the one that backed Sanders and received this email from fundraisers: LINK

quote:

We were very disappointed to hear that you would resign your position with the DNC so you could endorse Bernie Sanders, a man who has never been a Democrat before. When we met over dinner a couple of years ago I was so impressed by your intellect, your passion, and commitment to getting things done on behalf of the American people.”

The e-mail continues, “For you to endorse a man who has spent almost 40 years in public office with very few accomplishments, doesn’t fall in line with what we previously thought of you. Hillary Clinton will be our party’s nominee and you standing on ceremony to support the sinking Bernie Sanders ship is disrespectful to Hillary Clinton. A woman who has spent the vast majority of her life in public service and working on behalf of women, families, and the underserved.”

The e-mail closes, “You have called both myself and Michael Kives before about helping your campaign raise money, we no longer trust your judgement so will not be raising money for your campaign.”

Not sure how important a position that will be under Trump, sure, why not.

She's one of the good Democrats that exist. She refused to bow to the Clinton machine.

Trump should highly consider her for a position. It would definitely signal to Dems that he's ready to drain the swamp.

She's not just a Democrat or a Bernie-bot, she's a veteran too.

i actually think it's a really good idea to tie some rising democratic stars to his cabinet.

A) it's reaching across the aisle
B) it ties himself and his presidency to those people for their future life in politics.

He needs to create a relationship with people like her, Booker, Castro, etc.

The job is very similar to press secretary in that the guy/girl just relays positions from the WH to the UN. They don't give a lot of advice to the President like other cabinet heads would do.

Reading some of the comments on twitter, the tolerant liberals are already starting to turn on her.

I wonder what label they're gonna come up if she gets a spot.

Think of it as a way to compromise them with the base.

John Huntsman was a rising star for the GOP until he became the ambassador to China under Obama as an attempt to build foreign policy credentials. Being tied to Obama burned a lot of bridges after Obama started fricking the GOP.
