Excerpt -

LITTLE ROCK - The permanent exhibits at the Clinton Presidential Library could be revamped or entirely changed as the landmark dedicated to the former president's time in office approaches its fifth anniversary, the facility's director said Tuesday.

Library director Terri Garner said discussions have begun about how best to showcase Bill Clinton's pursuits since leaving office in January 2001. That could include displays about work done by the William J. Clinton Foundation, which focuses on HIV/AIDS prevention and environmental policy.

Then there's also the matter of his wife, Hillary, and her own political career in the years since.

"You have to be a little bit careful because this is a library about his presidency," Garner said. "However, there needs to be an aspect of the ongoing post-presidency as well."

Discussions on how to change the library remain in preliminary stages, Garner said. However, she acknowledged it could involve changing everything.

"Usually within five to ten years of a permanent exhibit, you want to revamp it, you want to address it not in a small way, but sometimes it's a completely new design," Garner said. "We're at the very, very, very beginning stages. Realize, of course, there's a significant cost associated with it."

When the inevitable happens and Hillary tanks, the amount of donations for the liberry from the high-roller Democrats, liberals, communists, radicals and foreign interests will tank also.

Admissions alone plus personal dollars from the upcoming clout-less couple will not keep this pathetic wheel estate in operation.

The economic situation will be further complicated in the event of a post-election marital split between Hillary and Bubba. Who will get the outside string of porta-potties and the Weber grill?

New exhibits will be like re-arranging the furniture in Bill's Harlem "office".
