PUMA for Summers

Let's restore the Clinton 90s cabinet -- starting with Clinton's Secretary of the Treasury which cleaned up after Bush Sr -- Larry Summers.

Bring back Clinton's Treasury Secretary Larry Summers -- and the Clinton economy of the 90s

A man whom Bill Clinton chose to clean up after Bush Sr -- is being considered for high position in the new administration. (He did a good job with a similar bailout for Mexico in the 90s, got the money back with a profit.)

Summers was confirmed as Under Secretary of the Treasury in 1993 "at the start of the Clinton administration. He was confirmed then and two more times, as deputy and then as secretary." [ per NYT]
