...by offering Congressman Joe Sestak a "high ranking" cabinet position to drop out of his Pennsylvania senate race against Senator Arlen Specter?

"Federal law makes it a felony to offer 'anything of value' to an official of the government in return for a decision in your favor by that official of the government; it is called bribery."

I'm pretty sure that accepting the position of President when you are not qualified to do so is even worse than a felony.
It is not against the law to offer somebody a job, but it is a look at the sleazy side of politics. And it is an indication of how much the hidden powers want to continue to reward Specter for his part in the cover-up of the JFK assassination.
I think a more blatant example is the bribe oops I mean the $300,000,000 Senator Landrieu got for her state in exchange for her vote on the health care bill.
