Despite the sprinkling of black and brown faces and several women as well, Joe Biden's initial cabinet and NSA picks are the wet dream of the centrist establishment. An "enlightened" Shrub or his brother Jeb might have picked the same people if their administration started in A.D. 2020. Instead of the crude battle cry of "America First", it will be America first among equals.
Of course, compared to what tRump probably would have offered, this is a dream team and most people exhaled with relief that there was a sense of normalcy in these choices. I will agree most of these people will be approved by the Senate. However, this is a pretty low bar, and I expect better of Biden when it comes to the powerful domestic posts he will soon roll out.
