Who Should Replace Eric Holder?

Obviously, no one can really replace Eric Holder--much like President Obama, he's larger than life and cannot simply be replaced--so rather, who do you think should fill Holder's position as Attorney General? Faux News had a surprisingly good breakdown of potential names in the ring:

Five Candidates Who Could Replace AG Eric Holder Two Who Have Said No - Fox Nation

1.) Don Verrilli

Verrilli, who serves as the nation's solicitor general, is a longtime Obama aide thought to be well liked within both the Justice Department and the West Wing.

Verrilli earned his greatest national prominence when he argued on behalf of the Obama administration in the 2012 Supreme Court case challenging the constitutionality of ObamaCare. Although legal experts initially panned his performance, Chief Justice John Roberts joined the court's liberal bloc to uphold the vast majority of the law.

3.) Kamala Harris

California Attorney General Kamala Harris is widely considered as one of the Democratic Party's rising stars, and is expected to eventually seek either the governor's mansion or a U.S. Senate seat. A stint in Washington could help raise her profile for such a campaign, and she has prominent boosters on Capitol Hill — House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) among them.

I was quite happy to see Harris' name in particular on this list, as she sprung to mind immediately as being a great option.

Thoughts?

someone who actually has an interest in law enforcement, not just covering BO's backside and trying to persecute the opposition.

Do you understand that the Attorney General is not a cop, AKA "law enforcement officer"?

Someone with a brain, a spine, and integrity, unlike he, obummer or any dimwit.
 
As long as he/she legalizes pot, I don't care who they put in..

The last time I talked to Christine Gregoire, she was still excited about being a new Grandma but-----but if...
...three time Washington state Attorney General and
...Chairman of the National Governors Association and
...two time Governor Chris Gregoire chooses to get back into fray...
she'd be a great advocate for the law, for the constitution for women for minorities and-----and by the by Moonglow, Governor Gregoire tried to get the federal law changed to legalize marijuana.

.
Than she would be a bad choice.

You're doing a fine job of discrediting conservatards.

From the Judiciary Act of 1789, which established the position of Attorney General:

And there shall also be appointed a meet person, learned in the law, to act as attorney-general for the United States, who shall be sworn or affirmed to a faithful execution of his office; whose duty it shall be to prosecute and conduct all suits in the Supreme Court in which the United States shall be concerned, and to give his advice and opinion upon questions of law when required by the President of the United States, or when requested by the heads of any of the departments, touching any matters that may concern their departments, and shall receive such compensation for his services as shall by law be provided.

The AG is not law enforcement. Law enforcement officers are cops, the police, the bronze 5-0; the AG is a lawyer for the federal government. This is true no matter how many idiots claim it to be false; unless you can find me another act of Congress conferring further status upon the AG as "the chief law enforcement officer of the United States," you're merely an idiot repeating the unsourced, unfounded claims of other idiots.

Deal with it.

Deal with this, bytch.
The Judiciary Act of 1789 created the Office of the Attorney General which evolved over the years into the head of the Department of Justice and chief law enforcement officer of the Federal Government. The Attorney General represents the United States in legal matters generally and gives advice and opinions to the President and to the heads of the executive departments of the Government when so requested. In matters of exceptional gravity or importance the Attorney General appears in person before the Supreme Court. Since the 1870 Act that established the Department of Justice as an executive department of the government of the United States, the Attorney General has guided the world's largest law office and the central agency for enforcement of federal laws.
