6/01/2005 08:39:00 AMThe Washington Post has a fascinating article about BillClinton's life since the presidency and his popularity around theworld. It claims that a few months after leaving office, Clintondecided he wanted to head the UN and started to map out astrategy to get there. That would sure beat being mayor ofNew York as far as influence goes.No word on Clinton's attitude towards reforming the UN andmaking it more effective. But he certainly knows the quickestand best way to get the job: helping Hilary get into the WhiteHouse.
