Just to let you know that neither Kissinger or Schwarzenegger are "prominent" Republicans. Henry is a disgraced Nickson-ear war criminal and the other is a Hollywood 'B' star who got lucky. Really, no one cares what this pair thinks. So, please, a little reality would be great.

Since nothing else has worked, maybe he should ask Morgan Spurlock. Sorry, I know, cheap shot. But then again anything could help at this point.

Chuck Hagel and John McCain, neither conservatives, hence their uselessness to our party. McCain is said to be willing " to work " with Obama. As they have the same views on almost everything, where is the news ? Obama's team does not contain one businessman. Command economy anyone ?

President-elect Barack Obama has been proving himself to be of strong character over and over again. I am a Democrat and a citizen of the United States. I know I have no say in this matter, but I hope Obama chooses a man like R-Arkansas Governor Mike Hukabee for his cabinet. Huckabee or Romney!

Zenzi, Chicago, United States

Obama's embracing a one party system and one world government should be an alarming developement for everyone, including those not in the U.S.! He ran as a centrist, but now his liberal side is coming out. I wonder how long it will be before Obama supporters concede they really screwed up!

He also needs to get the former indestructable bankers named and shamed - with details of all their payouts, bonuses etc etc and to help me with my mortgage payments because they were so incompetent.

I am more likely to be eaten by a shark than need to fear Bin Laden...
Bush didn't understand it so you can't blame him, he was only trying to read the speaches he was given.
A war is when one army fights another. Occupation is when an army camps out in a country and shoots anyone that objects.

Oh dear,

His body language is telling a different story to what his mouth is uttering.
How many people actually believe Bin Laden is still alive, in reality, not in our minds?

The scaremongering has began.

Brace yourself world, for a change we're going to have to believe in.

Mr Obama got 52% of the votes by promising Utopia. Now even left-wing intellectuals, admittedly only those of superior calibre, understand this lesson of history: Utopian plans are never implementable. And the main victims of this undeliverable promise: poor blacks and idealist whites.

Awake!

You are so right on ~ Luke in Australia!!!
Glad to see someone else out there is paying attention!!

I think our President-elect will do a fine job. Red, or yellow, or black or white...I think he stands for a breath of fresh air for all of us in this great country of ours...the USA.

Hillary Clinton, once enters into the State Department Building, would have her own agenda and pursue them vigorously even without the President's backing.. Team Obama please take note of the Reagan-Haig fiasco.

James Wong , Macau,

Weekly radio broadcasts? Bipartisan Cabinet?

Can you say FDR and Lincoln? I love this man! I know he'll make mistakes, and I know he'll have some hard times, and I know he won't be perfect, but the fact that he really is trying to unite us is so heartening. Yay!

Jess, Chicago,

While the bipartisan cabinet may seem backwards to some, I personally think it is a great idea. I think that the ability for the president-elect to think outside the box will be a great asset to the world at large.

Jason, Columbus, USA

He needs Ron Paul on board. That man is personifies all the republican wisdom that Obama needs, with none of the lobbyist-funded baggage currently weighing down the Republican party.

You are too clever mate for the people of today and your views are too smart for the politicians and media of today

Being like you dude man I know and agree with your views on Lincoln

Roy, london,

I wouldn't be surprised if Colin Powell is asked to step in for the defense secretary position or at least as a senior advisor. He was a vocal supporter of Obama, and has impeccable credentials. I am confident, given the freedom, and values that Mr. Obama represents, Mr. Powell would shine.

Sam, Santa Ana, USA

Besides Mr. Powell, Hillary Clinton would make an excellent Secretary of State, and would in many ways help bring in her supporters on board, thereby uniting the Democrats further.

Bottom-line, Obama is acting out on his premise of 'Change' & maintaining the momentum.

Sam, Santa Ana, USA

Glad to see Obama getting the exposure he deserves.
