Showing Original Post only (View all)Joe Biden considering Hillary Clinton for ambassador to the United Nations: report [View all]
clip
..."One intriguing name being discussed privately is former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, according to the person familiar with the chatter who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The thinking behind the move was that it would be a way for Biden to highlight the importance of that position in his administration, and that placing her there would raise the prestige of the U.N. itself at a time when global cooperation, and the U.S. role on the world stage, has ebbed."

Hillary would shine as UN Ambassador, and the world would welcome her with open arms.

The UN Ambssador isn't as much of a high risk position as SoS, hence, groom him here.

This "considering" wouldn't be public if he weren't actually going to appoint her, imo.
