It’s nothing more than a ceremonial post for someone with an M.D. after his name, so someone at home in front of a TV camera should do fine. After all, who even remembers who George W. Bush appointed as Surgeon General? Anyhow, compared to the train wrecks Clinton appointed (we all remember Joycelyn Elders for all the wrong reasons—though she did have a grip on things!), Sanjay won’t be so bad. I’m damning with faint praise, of course.
Rich Carmody. I think he was an Army Ranger.
