This is a tough job for anybody to do. What the successful secretary needs to do is to build a team around them because this is bigger than any one person, and to work very collaboratively with veteran service organizations and Congress.

VA OIG reports 'must be accurate,' 'must be fair,' and 'must be objective.' This report is none of those things.
