Barack Obama Taps Clinton for Secretary of State

Rumors had been swirling whether or not President-Elect Obama would pick former rival Hillary Clinton to be his Secretary of State, but he has since revealed that he indeed will give that role to the former first lady. 

Furthermore, the rumors were solidified when Bill Clinton was asked for all donor documentation within his Arkansas library, and when the paperwork was released it was reported that Clinton had a few unidentified donors from the middle east which raised a few eyebrows.

The former president having middle eastern oil ties and being so close to George W. Bush immediately set off alerts regarding Hillary's promotion, not to mention all the backstabbing lies she told on Obama during her campaign run which seemed to rub some people the wrong way. There was a painted picture that the Clinton's couldn't be trusted, but now that Obama has definitely chosen the east coast native for the job, Americans have no choice but to accept his decision. 

If Hillary Clinton had been elected president, would she have promoted Obama to a position within her administration? 

We'll probably never know the answer to that question but it would seem that Obama wants to be fair across the board, and adding an intelligent woman like Hillary to his cabinet changes the status quo and in turn, we stand the chance to achieve world peace by simply working together. 

Wishing the Obama/Biden administration much courage and luck, during the economic catastrophe currently facing our great nation.
