Hey Joe,

Dr. Ray here.

You haven’t heard from me since last April, near the tail end of the presidential primaries — and, if I recall, the exact occasion was the Wisconsin primary, which you won and that other last man standing, Bernie Sanders, threw in the towel.

At the time, I wrote you a note, congratulating you on knocking off some 20 of your worthy rivals during the course of the campaign — and offering you some advice about whom you might consider picking for your administration, if you won the election.

Well, that time has come and I see that you are actually naming members of your Cabinet. In fact several of these names showed up in the media this week.

Thus, I figured it was high time for me to circle back and present you with my expanded roster of the folks I would advise you to consider for your administration.

I should add that, full disclosure, you are not the horse I bet on in this presidential race…
