Hmm, is this an inconsistency? It's possible that Henry Wallace would leave with the death of Al Smith. TR 04:31, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Sounds inconsistent to me, yes.

Of course, maybe Wallace couldn't take the terrible tragedy of losing a great, Sonny Bono-esque leader to being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and went sort of unhinged. Turtle Fan 04:45, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

I certainly considered it possible when I noticed the Secretary changed but as you say, the new Pres may have changed his cabinet. Did LBJ do that when he took over from JFK? ML4E 01:25, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Answering the question months later--No, and God knows he had reason to, as he and Bobby Kennedy hated each other about as much as two people can before they try to kill each other. But cabinet members can resign as they please. TR 16:25, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
