SINCE 1945, the world’s top diplomatic job has been held by three Europeans, two Africans, one Latin American, but no women.

Well, it seems that they've never had an American either. So my vote would be to give them Hitlery and then the United States should quit and expel the entire organization.

Why? All of this makes no sense. We haven't had a leader whose last name begins with "Z" either. We need one of those, too.

What are the odds of the US NOT vetoing a Helen Clark nomination?

I hate how no one ever campaigns to put the best person for the job in the position rather it is put someone who we think will be beholden to our interests in the job.

It's going to be quite a challenge to find a woman as corrupt as Kofi.

I believe that the UN Charter does not allow permantent members to seat a Secretary-General....so US citizen is not eligible....

Where Hillary goes bill will follow.
Does the U.N. have sufficient private quarters for Bill to roam?

Louisiana's Gov. comes to mind to fit the current mold.

For corruption and sheer rottenness, the HillaBeast is hard to beat, but given the Turd World aspect of the UN, Winnie Mendella comes to mind as suitable and electable..
