Leading up to the election, foreign newspapers were filled with expressions of hope that Obama would be elected as President of the United States and put forth a "New Face for America".
There are several reasons Clinton would be a disasterous selection Secretary of State: 1. Clinton represents the same old face of America, albeit not as much as Bush the Lesser does.
2. During the primaries, Clinton expressed herself time and time again as antipodal to Obama's foreign policy positions.
3. Clinton is a limelight seeker and would detract from the importance of both Obama and Biden on foreign affairs issues.
4. Over half the Democrats and all of the Republicans have expressed that they don't trust her judgment on foreign affairs issues.
5. Clinton can do more in the Senate working for Universal Heath Care.
6. Clinton has a history of mistaking little girls with gifts of flowers as machine gun fire and the need to duck into airplane hangers. (If she lied about that, ...)
