6. Won't have any trouble lobbying Bush Administration to pull money from Education Department to throw into this fight

4. Don't have to worry about Dole signing on to do an "Apprentice" show with Donald Trump or Martha Stewart

3. With his Senate experience, he can write the new "No Port Operator Left Behind" bill, so Bush can ram it through Congress

2. It was his vast knowledge and experience on ports from growing up in Kansas
