Subject: Name Ron Paul's Cabinet!
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that Ron Paul wins the presidency and with his magic wand enacts all of the changes he has promised to deliver concerning government. So five cabinets are now missing (Energy, HUD, Commerce, Interior, and Education), the TSA is gone, and Senators are now elected by State government and not popular vote.

What does the Cabinet and Line of Succession now look like? Here are my guesses, what are yours?

Vp - Jesse Ventura
Speaker of the House - Foghorn Leghorn
President Pro Tempore of The Senate - Rand Paul
Secretary of State - Alex Jones
Secretary of the Treasury - Gordon Gecko
Secretary of Defense - Ben Stein
Attorney General - Fred Thompson
Secretary of Agriculture - Bartles and James
Secretary of Labor - S. Robson Walton
Secretary of HHS - Michael Swango
Secretary of Transportation - Optimus Prime
Secretary of Veterans Affairs - Colonel Bison
Secretary of Homeland Security - Blade

Bonus question - who does he nominate to the Supreme court? He'll get two choices most likely.
- John Grisham
- Orally Taintz

Hopefully he'd just eliminate most of them.

Treasury - gone
Interior - gone
Agriculture - gone
Commerce - gone
Labor - gone
HHS - gone
HUD - gone
Transportation - gone
Energy - gone
Education - gone, and every former member and employee exiled from the country.
Homeland security - gone, and every former member executed.

Ron Paul can run the entire government himself.

Nope, just 5: Energy, HUD, Commerce, Interior, and Education
