Back in 1789 days or thereabouts (probably up to the Presidency of James
Madison, who was sadly afflicted with one of the worst Congresses on
record!), this might have been a very good solution.

Unfortunately, the engulfment and devourment of American government by
political parties (a role NOT authorized or prohibited by the Constitution,
unfortunately) means this is highly unlikely.

This is all about POLITICS - and that means political parties, patronage,
payoffs, and pissing on everyone else (the 4 p's these days).  The
likelihood of Al Gore, Jr. taking such an offer is ZERO.  Gore is also
killing his political future by throwing the election into the courts,
unlike Nixon.

Cheney can go back to Secretary of Defense, Colin Powell can take over as
Secretary of State, Condo Rice can be Nat Sec. Advisor, and you can give the
rest to Norman Schwartzkopf to dismantle  :-)
