According to The Ugly American (who read in the German daily tabloid BILD) and the Washington Post (scroll down to "Clinton's dream job"), yes. Clinton would love to have Kofi Annan's job as the UN Secretary General when Mr. Annan steps down in 2006. And knowing Clinton, he'll probably get the job. Of course, it hinges a little bit on the outcome of the US election and it's still two years away. Lots of things can happen in two years.
On the one hand, it would be nice to have a former American President in the top seat. And the Europeans love him, so his appointment would probably improve relations across the ocean. Or just convince the Europeans/the Middle East that we really are imperialistic pigs looking to take over the world. Bwhhaaha. Er, um, sorry about that.
On the other hand, I'm not so sure Clinton is a good person for the job. I'm really not sure what to make of this. Feel free to speculate or offer your opinion in the comments.
