11/14 So including Agriculture and Energy, how many Bush cabinet people have
retired? Is this the normal amount?
\_ Aschcroft, now Powell, probably some more people will retire. I'd
say at the end of it all we'll see six-seven people go. This is
quite normal. Some presidents shake up the whole cabinet after
the first term so everyone goes.
\_ Why do presidents do that? If they get re-elected, doesn't it
usually mean there was something good about what their cabinets
did?
\_ Really? Who has done that? No one in the last 30 years. |
