Most ex-presidents and former prime ministers devote their lives to making a positive difference in the world, or at least fade away into obscurity. Here are five former leaders who have done neither.
This quote leads off an article in Foreign Policy Magazine on certain no longer serving political leaders who continue to insist in occupying the limelight. The five covered are:
Gerhard Schröder - Germany;
José María Aznar - Spain;
Olesegun Obasanjo - Nigeria;
Joseph Estrada - Philipines;
Thaksin Shinawatra - Thailand.
