Can you imagine having Hillary Rodham Clinton as President of the United States and William Jefferson Clinton as Secretary General of the United Nations?

I don't know about it being a "Liberal's Dream", but if Mrs. Clinton is qualified, I see no reason why she couldn't run on the Democratic ticket for President at some point. I'm not up on her politics, so I can't say if she'd be good or bad for the country. But bashing her simply because she's a "Clinton" is the same as bashing someone for their race or religion, in my book.
As far as Bill goes, I thought about it. What the United Nations does need is a wheeler-dealer and there's certainly nobody better in politics than Bill Clinton for that! And he'd have all of the personell under his desk that he'd care for. The rest of the world wouldn't care in the least.

Actually, the rest of the world would probably rejoice at having Bill Clinton as General Chairman! Like at home, Bill is liked everywhere he goes, in ever country he stops in. He never was an "Ugly American" like this President that we have now. He respected all local customs and respected all leaders and did some good business for both countries at a time. If Kofi Annon ever decides to step down, Bill ought to be nominated to take his place.

I saw a documentary last night ‘How Bush Won Florida’.
What a mockery the Bush monarchy made of your ‘Democracy’.

>I don't remember bashing Hillary because she was a Clinton!
I don't reall you bashing her at all. If you do remember it, why not post a link here to it for all of us catch up on every exciting comment that you've made about her? Enquiring Minds want to know!

Bill Clinton wants to succeed Kofi Annan as secretary-general of the United Nations, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review says.
"While it is still early, there is a major international move under way to make Bill Clinton the chief executive of the United Nations. Unbelievable? You had only to watch Clinton's performance on a recent 'Larry King Live' program. There, Bill, with his new haircut and coiffure blued to a snowy-white perfection, made repeated adulatory references to the United Nations," says the newspaper's brash Dateline DC column.
"If Bill had planned this career move years ago, some actions during his presidency - un noticed to most of us at the time - begin to make sense, at least as the ploy of a man maneuvering for a lucrative job in the international limelight that requires no heavy lifting.
"Now, here is the truly frightening aspect - the fix is in. There are reports that Bill Clinton already has lined up support for his candidacy (to run the united nations) from Germany, France, England, Ireland and New Zealand. A handful of African states, led by Nigeria, are rooting for Bill. And Hillary has brought in Morocco and Egypt. The Russians have let it be known that they would not object to Clinton as the next secretary-general, and the Chinese love Bill almost as much as Monica did.
"In Latin America, Ecuador and Brazil's new labor-loving, rabble-rousing populist presidents are Bill's type of politician, and in Asia, many Indian leaders think warm and fuzzy thoughts about the former U.S. president," says the Tribune Review.

Borillar, I noticed, A-Plus on the pun.
I believe Bill Clinton to be one of the best Presidents we've ever had. I believe history will verify that. He was certainly the smartest. Would he make a good Secretary General of the United Nations? You bet. I think he would do well in any endeavor he tried.
Hillary is one of our Senators but I don't believe she will ever be President. I don't believe she could ever get the votes. It's a love, hate thing for her in New York State.
Amen,
It's raining,
Reverend Colin
