He needs to find one quickly.
Ron Paul would be the perfect choice...It would show that Obama REALLY cares about America's economy, it would show that Obama REALLY wants to reach across the aisle, and it would REALLY piss off a lot of NEOCONS.
Who do we email?

Obama would pick someone who agrees with him on economics. He can do that and still reach across the asile, if that is what he wants, because many on both sides are economic interventionists. Ron Paul isn't, and wouldn't be picked.
Not to mention, he wouldn't accept, and if he did, he could be dismissed at any time.

Why do you wanjt Ron Paul to be associated with the train wreck that is already becoming the Presideny of Barack Obama?
Stocks tanked today...bad. The worst dive ever for the day after an election. The market speaks volumes of what is to come. Just think when he starts passing legislation.
In the words of the gorgeous governor of the great state of Alaska, "Thanks but no thanks to that bridge to nowhere."
A secretary position would be precisely that, a bridge to nowhere.

Obama is a populist, not principled. He has no beliefs he goes with the crowd. The crowd wants socialism, he provides it. We must win the crowd.

"The train wreck that is already becoming the Obama Presidency"
Do you get your talking points from Rush Limbaugh ?
Yes, the stock markets may have collapsed due to the start of the dismantling of the neo-con's military industrial complex.
I think Ron Paul should be on Obama's short list for Secretary of the Treasury.

Everyone realizes pretty much who's controlling Obama.
No one said he is on Obama's list, but Ron Paul should be on President Obama's list for Secretary of the Treasury.

He has already gotten a lot of e-mails on this. I told my friend who is into Obama to e-mail him about it yesterday, and he said he already had. It was the first thing he did. He does a lot of Obama blogging on various social networking sites, and there are in fact a lot of people who like Obam and Ron Paul, despite the opinions of many on this site. I believe Obama is dangerous and I could not support him. I thought McCain was more dangerous, though.
So it seems there are more Obama fans who are making a concerted effort to get Ron Paul into his cabinet than Ron Paul fans. Pathetic.

Damn, you don't really believe that do you? Obama, cut back on the MIC? Never gonna happen. His advisors want to control the entire world, you can't do that with a pocket knife.

That is pathetic if true. How could we ever get the MSM to mention Ron Paul as Secretary of Treasury? Do we need a money blimp dropping Ron Paul Dollars on people's heads?

Obama said he wants to hear from Americans. He wants to hear from people he disagrees with. If you don't think he's going to listen to you, fine, but if you don't say anything then you can't fucking whine when he doesn't do what you want.
This will be an interesting four years when Ron Paul will have the opportunity to get a lot of his legislation passed...maybe not the economic ones so much, but hemp, medical marijuana, civil liberties restoration.. these are all things that Obama says he agrees with, and most Democrats say they agree with. If Ron Paul puts forth the legislation and they don't go along with it, then they can be shown to be the traders that they are, just like Republicans were shown to be traders to economic conservatism over the last few administrations. The other option is we can have some civil liberties restored. Both of those options sound better than sitting in an internet forum whining about Obama's handlers and not doing anything.

Really, no . . . but McCain would have been worse of course and was who the MIC would have wanted.
Obama/Biden will cave in some -
yet a civilian democracy may have scored some points over the military fascist pick on Tuesday . . . but that is all we got.

You are absolutely correct - he may feign support for 'ending war', but Obama's real concern is not allowing the fighting to be as poorly managed as Iraq.
Here's a hint: The entire government system is poorly managed.
I have a feeling we're getting FDR's social plan mixed with Lyndon Johnson's Vietnam Plan.
In other words: don't put faith in the solvency of your money.

Ron Paul started out his speech at the press conference regarding third parties by quoting Carroll Quigley from his book "Tragedy and Hope":
"The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. " [Pg. 1247-1248.]
RP also pointed out that Bill Clinton named Carroll Quigley as a major influence (in his acceptance speech for the Democratic Nomination in 1992):
"As a teenager, I heard John Kennedy’s summons to citizenship. And then, as a student at Georgetown, I heard that call clarified by a professor named Carroll Quigley, who said to us that America was the greatest Nation in history because our people had always believed in two things–that tomorrow can be better than today and that every one of us has a personal moral responsibility to make it so."
Two days ago, the American people threw the rascals out, but recent history shows us that Carroll Quigley's views on the US parties are reality. One should not expect a significant change in policy. Ron Paul as a cabinet member would represent a significant change in policy, so he has a chance in hell of becoming one.
If you look back decades, cabinet members for ALL administrations are predominantly members of the Council on Foreign relations, which of course appears to the brain child organization of much policy, including NAFTA, CAFTA, GATT, NAU, what-have-you.
personally, i think it's worth the effort. of course, RP would bitch and grumble against monetizing the debt, etc. but can anyone here think of a better (feasible) solution to getting the economy back on (somewhat) stable footing?
after the reign of King Henry [Paulson], who would you trust to unwind this current clusterf#ck more than RP?
i'm sure "no one" is everyone's answer here, so why not drop an email to Obama's handlers? to criticize this effort concept as if it were put forth by a crackhead is classless. even though we all know that the chances are only slightly better than a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest - why give up.
we've come too far to just give up.

How many guns do "we" have?
not too sure what the guy that uses bold print (above) means, but here is what i sent:
"Most of the names being thrown around as potential Treasury Secretaries have one thing in common: they are Wall Street executives or former Wall Street executives.
If we have learned anything from the current economic conundrum the US economy is in it is that Wall Street is not the place to look for solutions.
Ron Paul is the foremost authority among public officials on monetary policy. He would be a tremendous choice for Secretary of the Treasury and would be cheered on not only by the financial markets but Americans in general."

Obama: "True dat. I think I'd better do it. The people have spoken."

Just a random thought on how "we" can MAKE Barack select Ron. ( at gunpoint )
A) Ron couldn't make it through the Congressional advise and consent process.
B) When he did something RON-like, Barack would just fire and replace him.
