Here's Clinton's big chance to do some good
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050201/ap_on_re_as/un_tsunami_clinton

"Secretary-General Kofi Annan has selected former President Clinton to be the U.N. point man for tsunami reconstruction and ensure that the world doesn't forget the immense needs of the countries devastated by the Dec. 26 disaster, a U.N. diplomat said Tuesday"

I've been very critical of Clinton in the past. Here is his chance to do some real good for people who truly need help. If he does well, he could help to mend the relationship between the US and the UN, probably the only chance we'll have to do so in the next four years. I hope Clinton makes the mot of it and helps the UN to truly do good for the poor people devasted by the tsunami.

1. This kills two birds with one stone
Helping tsunami victims and preventing him from advancing his pro-DLC agenda from half way across the globe.
