WASHINGTON — President-elect Barack Obama has hired veteran Democrats Sam Nunn and Warren Christopher to head his transition teams at the Pentagon and State Department, senior government officials and others said Tuesday.
Nunn is a former Georgia senator who was chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee. He was once rumored as a potential running mate for Obama this year. Christopher was President Clinton’s first secretary of state. They are part of a national security brain trust for Obama that is heavy on former Clinton administration officials.
