In the first part of a series, Reason Foundation's Shikha Dalmia examines President-elect Barack Obama's options for Treasury Secretary, Secretary of Education and Secretary of Transportation. Dalmia writes, "It would be smart policy and politics for Obama to recruit not establishment liberals, but people with a wide-array of views that reflect the ideological diversity of the voters who elected him. Limited government and open markets are ideas that are inextricably woven into the DNA of this country and Obama would be wise to hire smart people capable of articulating them and crafting policies to implement them. To this end, I've offered a list of three sets of candidates for the major cabinet appointments." For the good, the bad and the ugly, click here.
