The radio talk-show hosts and cheaper commentators would have us believe that the world is run by a conspiracy of smug, left-leaning gabblers, journalists, and Hollywood types. But if you really want to know who the movers and shakers are in our global village, rustle up $15,000 and ask your limo driver to drop you off at the Sheraton on Seventh Avenue.
There you will see the most unusual and unlikely couplings in public life. We have been led to believe that the Bushes and the Clintons are sworn enemies.Yet this morning you will see Bill Clinton and Laura Bush air-kissing and hugging as if one had just awarded the other an Oscar. It is all part of the world-class celebrity love-in we have come to know as the Clinton Global Initiative, now in its second year.
