Does a new President of the United States always appoint an entirely new staff?

Question

I know that attourneys (like the ones in the firing scandal right now) are usually replaced when a new administration comes into power. What other government positions are like this? The Cabinet, obviously. What other appointed positions are typically re-started?

Answer 1

he has the choice to, sometimes he keeps some of them

Answer 2

the trick is finding a President with the courage to appoint people that may not agree with him or her sometimes.if it's done right,the government works.the scandal right now is all about that.it's this little thing called 'checks and balances' that our President isn't quite happy with.a great leader understands that when you're dealing with a large group,say,a country,you need to know how people feel on both sides of the fence.maybe one day we'll have a leader like that,but we haven't since Lincoln.

Michelle Obama
