Step aside Kofi...
"He definitely wants to do it."
That is the inside word from an anonymous U.N. official in response to allegations that former President Bill Clinton is making a bid for Kofi Annan's job as Secretary General of the world's most powerful (prestigious is probably a better word) international body. This particular bit of information actually leaked out last October, however, talk of Clinton's expected appointment as the U.N.'s tsunami "czar" by Annan seems to be rekindling the debate.
The funny thing here is that, if it were any other former president considering the job, the rest of the world would probably have a cow. Except in Clinton's case, what can I say, the world just loves this guy.
"Back in February of 2003 there were reports of a "major international move" to engineer Clinton into the post. Those reports suggested Clinton had already lined up support for his candidacy for the secretary-general position from Germany, France, England, Ireland, New Zealand, a handful of African states, Morocco and Egypt." -WorldNetDaily
We all knew that Clinton was quite the diplomat, but damn... even France wants him! I guess after all of the stuff with Kofi Annan's corrupt son making deals with Saddam Hussein under the table got a lot of people to rethink the integrity of the current Secretary General. There were even reports that people were expecting him to resign before his term is up in 2006. It might be the perfect opportunity for Clinton to slip in and basically take the world over in a spectacular coup. Although, he might still have to create some kind of distraction, like ordering another Desert Fox or something.
