Bill Clinton's plane makes emergency landing in Tanzania
CBS News ^ | April 29, 2015 | REBECCA KAPLAN

A plane carrying former President Bill Clinton had to make an emergency landing in Tanzania Wednesday after one of the four engines on his plane stopped working, CBS News has learned.

Everyone on board the plane is safe.

Clinton was traveling in the East African nation to visit projects that have been funded by his family's foundation. The plane made an emergency landing at the Dodoma fueling station, where the engine had to be fixed.

The plane was a Canadian turboprop Dash 7, traveling from Iranga, a city in the center of Tanzania, to Lake Manyara, which is in the north.

Clinton is touring projects intended to boost agriculture, health, education and wildlife conservation. He and his daughter Chelsea are also scheduled to visit Kenya, Liberia and Morocco.

“Request an emergency landing. We are dangerously low on cocaine.”

I’ve always wondered to myself, what would the Obama administration do if Bill himself were held hostage by Boko Haram?

Nice try, Bill...but no cigar (/snix).

The buzz is Bill told Hillary she’d get 2 million more votes if he died and she campaigned in widow’s weeds.

Course, some wags figure Chelsea would win by acclamation if she offed both of them.

I don't seem to remember anybody asking the impeached disbarred Clinton to roam the world throwing money at these corrupt hellholes......where they defecate in their drinking water, and still don't understand why they are disease-ridden.

Look at the BILLIONS of dollars poured into Africa every year. Billions for decades ...

Then look at the total NOTHING Africa has to show for those billions.

And I mean NOTHING.

Haiti on a much grander scale... Billions go in - nothing comes out - nothing to show for all the 'investment'.

Almost like the money was going to a few elites at the top and kickbacks were everywhere...
