I thought so too, ita. Though he should totally be VP. I'm up for that.
'Harm's Way'
Boxed Set, Vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Any other member of SG1 can get with any other. Just not those two. It's not right.
Don't make me find recs.
OK, I've just rewatched the scene, and all Hayes said is, "Well, if you'll accept it, I've got another job for you." I was on the TiVo delay so I got the "Kinsey! Fired!" post here before I saw that scene, so I made the weird leap that George would become the VP (with a dollop of wishful thinking.) On rewatch, I think ita was right; the job was to head the mission on Prometheus. (Damn.)
Well, but he does need a VP now...
Hammond would have to retire, though.

Oh, I'm sure he'll get somebody he likes now.
Hey, when they unfreeze Jack will they remember he retired?

Would he? hmm, I guess. I know the President is Commander in chief, but since that's a civilian post, it makes sense.
Hmmm, I need to refresh my civics.
OTOH? President dies sometime next year and Hammond is suddenly POTUS? Gold.
Hey, when they unfreeze Jack will they remember he retired?
Hmmm, maybe he'll take Hammond's place at the SGC, instead....

Ya mean, when whoever was backing Kinsey has him killed?

So not where my mind was going.
And I don't think being retired necessarily helps with that.
Lord, let them not take him out of the field.
