For those of you who have fought to make sure the US Government would take aggressive action on the environment, fear not the Bureau of Land Management has heard your cries!

Now that Senator Obama's VP search is fully underway, I thought I'd give my two cents about what a future Obama administration should look like. One of the many reasons I support Obama for president is because he has the ability to surround himself by the best and the brightest this country has to offer, rather than political cronies. But just who would be best to tackle the most pressing issues we face as a nation?

After the jump you will find my dream cabinet as it stands right now, and you'll also see the cabinet I assembled back in December when the political situation looked much, much different.

I thought the attempts to link Barack Obama to Louis Farrakhan wouldn't gain much traction because of the Senator's earlier denunciation of Farrakhan's anti-semitic remarks. I had thought that people would remember Barack Obama's willingness to stand up to antisemiticism within the African-American community on Martin Luther King Day.

But as it turns out, major news outlets are pushing this one hard--from Tim Russert's aggressive line of questioning in the last debate, to today's story in the New York Times--all alluding to the illusive "some" who might have questions about Senator Obama's authenticity.
