It seems like the whole idea of appointing a Commerce Secretary who doesn’t support the President’s agenda didn’t work out so well.
A majority of the American public voted for Barack Obama and an even larger majority approves of the job he’s doing as President. That creates a pool of well over 100 million Americans from whose ranks Obama could reasonably appoint a Secretary of Commerce.
