What if a candidate would announce his/her potential cabinet before the election?

  • Apple
    Imagine if one of the final presidential candidates were to list some or maybe all his/her cabinet selections prior to the general election.

    Would this help or hurt the chances of winning?

    Pro:
    • It would definitely be something different and set the candidate apart from his/her opponent.... which could be good or bad in its own right.
    • The cabinet nominees would be able to go out individually and campaign in all areas of the country.
    • Voters would have a better understanding of what/who they are voting for.
    • Other? chime in OCers..

    Con:
    • Bad choices could hurt the candidate.
    • Other? chime in OCers..

    I think the pros would to-weigh the cons.
  • Apple
    Another con would be that there would be more targets for the opposition to throw their arrows...

    There are some people who would be cabinet members for more than one candidate, I believe.

    Our current potus has chosen a nightmare around him. But since he is a dem. The press would ever bring that up. If a pub did that, media would go after it

    i have away thought that the voting public should know what the candidates cabinet selection would be... In my opinion this should be a requirement before the general election.
