-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! Ex-Greek first lady urges Hillary to drop Senate bid Updated 6:40 AM ET November 20, 1999 By Dina Kyriakidou ATHENS, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Former Greek first lady Margaret Papandreou urged Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday not to run for the U.S. Senate but to become a champion of the world's underprivileged. The American-born Papandreou, who once offered her sympathy to Hillary Clinton as one cuckolded first lady to another in an open letter, told the visiting U.S. First Lady that she should set her sights much higher. "I would like to see you in a non-governmental role," she told Hillary Clinton over coffee with Greece's most prominent women. "I feel you can be the champion of the downtrodden, women, children, people in a state of poverty." "And then, my dear Hillary, you can run for president of the United States." Hillary Clinton, in Greece with U.S. President Bill Clinton for a 24-hour stopover, has not formally announced her decision to run for the Senate in New York. Recent opinion polls find her trailing her likely Republican opponent, Mayor Rudolph Guiliani. Margaret Papandreou, ex-wife of the late socialist prime minister Andreas Papandreou and mother of Foreign Minister George Papandreou, told Hillary Clinton she had a unique chance to use her influence to do good around the world. Andreas Papandreou divorced Margaret to marry Greek flight attendant Dimitra Liani, who was then half his age. When the Monica Lewinsky scandal hit the White House, Margaret published an open letter to Hillary Clinton offering sympathy and extolling her dignity in the face of a public family crisis. The First Lady did not respond to Papandreou's comments during her talk with 14 of Greece's most well-known women, who ranged from politician's wives to rights activists and professionals. Some urged her to help lift sanctions against Serbia, saying it was the Yugoslav people who suffered, not the government of Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic. They appealed to her for support during Greece's hosting of the 2004 Olympics, and set before her a variety of issues ranging from the environment to the trafficking of women around the world as slaves. "Every issue that was raised must be a world issue," the U.S. First Lady said. **COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.
