Completing a ‘shadow administration’

WEST BRATTLEBORO-A thank you to Tim Hayes for his thoughtful and thorough article on potentials for the Democratic Party.

I would just like to complement his concept of a "shadow cabinet" by advocating for a complete "shadow administration" with officials including Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Bernie Sanders, Becca Balint, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
