I hope this isn't too political (started a new thread in case it is), but I enjoyed the Trek angle. Which Trek Characters Should Obama Appoint?

For what it's worth, I recall a Shatner interview (don't remember where) done before the election and he got the question of which candidate James Kirk would've voted for. Shatner's answer was that Kirk would go for McCain. (Shat himself supported Obama.)

"Do you need a warrant for a mind-meld?" 
Hmm, I bet we could use Troi somehow. "Mr. President, they are lying. They do know where key Taliban leaders are hiding."

Definitely very useful. With your cabinet too, probably...

But Trekkies are moving on in politics. I red some where on a site refering to Obama's "Vulcan" qualities and a Republican governor Tim Pawlently (I hope I spell his name right) as T'Paw. The writer - who claimed to be a Trekkie, confused T'Paw with T'Pau. (And I have no idea who governor T'Paw is 
).
Some how I prefer Data in any cabinet. Hard working, full of details, likes to talk.

Remember when they sic'd Data on that guy that never shutup? And they just went at it for HOURS? Data'd be a good diplomat.
Wesley Crusher for Sec of State!
ok, no, but um... Elim Garak for National Security Advisor. Dead serious. This guy would GET SHIT DONE. Ok maybe better as Director of the CIA.
We'll start a list though, and everyone can give their own list:
Secretary of State:
Secretary of Treasury:
Secretary of Defense:
Attorney General:
Secretary of the Interior:
Secretary of Agriculture:
Secretary of Commerce:
Secretary of Labor:
(LOL, he ran Terok Nor...)
Secretary of Health and Human Services:
Secretary of Housing:
(No clue)
Secretary of Transportation:
Secretary of Energy:
Secretary of Veteran Affairs:
Secretary of Homeland Security:

^ Somehow that list doesn't strike me as the kind of "change" Obama would be after. But I'd get on board with it. 
I'd make Data tha Press Secretary. Imagine the frustration the White House press corps would have with him. They wouldn't be able to ask that many questions...
