Captain's Quarters
Well, how about this: could Hillary run for President while Bill served as UN Secretary-General? Constitutionally, yes, but politically, her run for the White House would be a dead letter. No one, including the Democrats, would want to see that much power concentrated in the hands of one family.

There is no way, absolutely, that Clinton or any other American could be appointed as Sec Gen at the UN.
Why?
For the very simple reason - I believe - that the Charter of the UN requires the Sec Gen to be a citizen of a "non-aligned" country.
Despite Bush's fervent attempts to get off-side with everyone else, I still do not believe that the US is "non-aligned".
If I am wrong about the "non-aligned" bit, there are still 240 nations who would vote against ANY american, and a goodly number who would vote against any US nominee.
