When Senator Hillary Clinton becomes the next Secretary of State, it will be the job of New York Governor David Paterson to appoint her replacement. Although state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo -- son of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo -- was considered the likeliest candidate, there's a new name in the running.
Caroline Kennedy, daughter of JFK and an early, vocal supporter of Barack Obama, has indicated that she wants the job.

"I don't see any downside to that," a source close to the situation told RADAR. "Even though she has no political experience, the name is magic. She would certainly be able to raise the money to run on her own after finishing the remaining two years of Clinton's term."
And think of what it would do to the 2016 Presidential race!
