Since it has become all the buzz in Washingtonian circles after Joe Biden and I were seen in close proximity over the holiday, I suppose I ought to admit that I am available (if nominated) to serve as Pres. Obama’s Secretary of Education. I could use a job, and Margaret seems likely to have a Beltway-area teaching gig for next year.
That’s my campaign slogan, by the way: “There are plenty of abler candidates, but I need a job more!”
or you could take 6 months off, write a memoir titled “I was Christened on Nantucket Island” and live off your royalties for the rest of your life!
