Did I miss something? Did Congress in the midst of their ire over creating President Barack Obama’s healthcare bill approve a third-term for Bill Clinton?
During the last week, it has seemed as if Clinton is back in the White House.
Earlier this week, Clinton and his former vice president Al Gore flew to North Korea and successfully negotiated the release of Korean-American journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who were sentenced to 12 years in prison on charges of entering the country illegally.

When the former president and vice president returned to America with Ling and Lee, there was no sight of U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, whose job it is to handle foreign relations, or President Obama.
Now, former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are turning their attention to war-torn Somalia, where the 1993 Black Hawk Down incident under President Clinton cost the lives of 18 Americans when two U.S. military helicopters were shot down. It was a humiliating blow for the U.S. and led to the military’s immediate withdrawal after two years of occupying Somalia. Now Hillary Clinton has pledged support for Somalia’s interim government.
Bill Clinton’s involvement in U.S. foreign affairs is a reflection of President Obama’s management skills and willingness to work with others. While he wrestles with domestic issues such as immigration, the recession and health care, he sends out the former commander in chief to handle foreign relations.
Clinton, the U.S. president from 1992-2000, and President Obama, who just completed the first six months in office, make a great team. It almost makes me forget about the past eight years under former president George W. Bush that led to the current deficit, economic recession and never-ending wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
