Wheres the Change?
What change does Obama attempt to make when most of all his cabient picks are that of the same as the last democratic president 8 years ago? He seems to be picking the same people who were there already, starting to look much like Clintons presidency. Not saying that Clinton was a bad president but Obama promised Change. Obama is changing the people that Bush chose and change will happen the fact that he is a democrat while Bush was a republican president. But will his presidency be just like Clintons? Only days left till a new change comes or a change many saw 8 years ago.

I think that one of the main reasons why Obama is putting people in his administration from previous president's administrations is for experience. If he has a brand new staff it will be extremely difficult for him to get anything done in the beginning of his term because everyone is getting use to how things run. With experienced people he can get into office and start presenting bills etc..
I agree with Ana. His cabinet would A) receive no respect, therefore hindering their ability to get things done and B) have to take much needed time to learn the system of working in a cabinet in the White House. Just because the people he chose to aid him in his presidency have been in office before doesn't mean there won't be change. Ultimately, Obama will possess most of the power in the White House, so I think change will be inevitable unless Obama backs out on his promises. It was smart of Obama to take in experienced and qualified individuals, otherwise, he would have too hard of a time getting anything done and the cabinet would be more error-prone.
