I think he might be the best I have seen mentioned so far.  Your thoughts?

I guess I just do not want another retread left over from a previous administration.  Or Greenspan.

Stephen Ames:

Maybe energy secretary too!...Obama woudl be a fool to not utilize this guy anyway he's willing...HE has the "it" that RP didn't have, people want to hear super -successful self-made people that standup to the government in regard to policy...Even if there is any greed in it for him, his plans would benefit the country and I don't care if he makes another billion helpling us, HE will earn it!...He has my vote....

Business is business, make a little money, help out your clients.... Buffett does all that currently, but this would be a much larger scale.  The Governator has done a damn good job of treating government like a business, in my opinion, and since we need a change anyways, why not let someone that has been madly successful give it a try???  I am for it wholeheartedly

I would not like this at all. We need Peter Schiff.

Or Ron Paul...

...but of the names that have been batted around, which one stands out as the best choise to you?  Unless you know something I don't...

****Arnold?...I thought they were the first in line looking for a handout due to terrible fiscal policies?.****

Well, California has always had their hand out.... popular belief that noone should have fiscal responsibility, and that there is always someone else that should be responsible for your mistakes had lead to some serious issues after Grey Davis.  We do have some gnarly fiscal issues, but I dont think that Arnold can be held to the fire for that one; cut spending, get yelled at... cut the (over) funding for schools, get yelled at.... try to increase taxes, get yelled at... attempt to borrow against millions in overages in CalSTRS/PERS and other government retirement funds, get yelled at..... kinda hard to do anything with all that, and yet we are better off than we were 5 years ago.
