If he'd want it, Press Secretary? Put him in front of a camera every day. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 24, 08:54 3
- Yeah, I envisioned him doing a lot of those as the modified CoS. -- nm - LFG Jul 24, 09:09

Chief of Staff -- nm - LFG Jul 24, 07:26 7
- You need a seasoned beltway insider for that. Remember, he would be boss to a lot of smart old people. -- nm - con_carne Jul 24, 07:52
- Seems a little too behind-the-scenes for someone of his talents, honestly. -- nm - znufrii Jul 24, 07:40 1
  - Evolve the roll? -- nm - LFG Jul 24, 07:42
- I want Pete to be president one day. Is Chief of State a path to the presidency? -- nm - Mop🧹 Jul 24, 07:38 2

- Word. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jul 24, 07:35
Those are the same things, is what I'm saying. -- nm - con_carne Jul 24, 07:18
He's so good at this. It kind of blows my mind how facile he is discussing these things live (not a written speech). -- nm - pmb Jul 24, 07:13 12
- He's the most presidential politician we have today by a longshot. -- nm - Inigo Jul 24, 07:17 11
  - He's like Jed Bartlett come to life. -- nm - pmb Jul 24, 07:57 1
    - What is Martin Sheen doing these days? VP! -- nm - Andie Jul 24, 08:10
  - In what way is he more "presidential" than Harris? -- nm - King Of Oklahoma Jul 24, 07:25 7
    - I think he's just always one step/thought ahead of whoever he's talking to. He's always calm but never boring. -- (edited) - Inigo Jul 24, 07:37 6
      - he's pretty boring -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 24, 07:59 4

        i like what he says but he needs to add some Kirk to his Spock -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 24, 09:04 1
        
        very true. -- nm - ☀️ mandy chem ☀️ Jul 24, 09:08
        
        If that were true, I don't think he'd be on TV so much -- nm - con_carne Jul 24, 08:38
      - I understand what you're saying. Thanks. -- nm - King Of Oklahoma Jul 24, 07:51
