A couple weeks ago, I published a simple game for political nerds. Assuming the next president must build a cabinet from current candidates for the Republican nomination for president, how would you assign candidates to cabinet positions.

This was meant to be a fun exercise for people who spend too much time thinking about politics. Like the leaders-eat-last poll, this required hide, often dissatisfying choices. As a result, only six people completed the exercise which took up to a half hour.

Here’s the cabinet you put together, using only the top position for candidate:

** Carly Fiorina: Secretary of Commerce ** Ben Carson: Secretary of Health and Human Services ** Jeb Bush: (4-way tie) Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of State, Secretary of Interior, Secretary of Energy ** Ted Cruz: Attorney General ** Rand Paul: Secretary of Treasury ** Marco Rubio: Secretary of Energy ** Scott Walker: Secretary of Labor ** Chris Christie: Secretary of Veterans Affairs ** Mike Huckabee: Secretary of Agriculture ** Donald Trump: Secretary of Treasury ** John Kasich: Secretary of Interior ** George Pataki: Secretary of Trasnportation ** Jim Gilmore: Secretary of Housing and Urban Development ** Bobby Jindal: Secretary of Education ** Lindsey Graham: Secretary of Defense ** Rick Perry: Secretary of Homeland Security
