"My hairdoes have been the subject of Ph.D. theses, so I want everybody to know that I got a good one in Nairobi," Clinton said in an aside to an economic forum involving some 40 African countries.

They said it's a wonderful place and a great place to raise children," Clinton said.

Hillary found her village--"It takes a village."

She didn’t say anything about the many almost abandoned villages occupied by only old folks, children and dogs. The rest of the villagers died of AIDS.
