I may not agree on everything with Tim, but he was a great Representative and he's very well qualified for the job.
Former Indiana Rep. Tim Roemer (D) may find himself back on the government payroll if, as expected, President Obama nominates him to be U.S. Ambassador to India.
Earlier this month, Foreign Policy Magazine reported Roemer, president of the Center for National Policy, would be the administration’s pick to represent the United States in Asia’s largest developing democracy.

Roemer, a former member on the 9/11 Commission, has been particularly active on nuclear security issues and radical Islam in the Afghanistan and Pakistan realms. He currently sits on the Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism.
Tensions run high between India and Pakistan over the disputed Kashmir region. Both countries are armed with nuclear weapons.
