Esquire: Clinton is world's "most influential man"

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Bill Clinton is "The Most
Influential Man in the World," according to Esquire magazine.The magazine has designated him as "the most powerful agent of change in the
world" despite his lack of electoral standing and the fact he was laid low
by a heart attack ahead of last year's presidential election.The magazine highlights Clinton's accomplishments in its December issue,
which goes on newsstands on Thursday, profiling the world's "Best and
Brightest" men and women.Since leaving office, Clinton has been so active that his post-presidency
amounts to "a third term" for the Democrat who held the White House from
1992 to 2000, the magazine said. He has tackled global issues from AIDS,
poverty and global warming to the recovery from last December's Indian Ocean
tsunami.Esquire editor David Granger argued that Clinton was poised to become
"something like a president of the world or at least a president of the
world's non-governmental organizations."But it will mean giving up a leadership role in the Democratic party or
pushing the political career of his wife, Sen. Hillary Clinton, seen as a
2008 White House contender.In the article, Clinton said that he remained loyal to his party, adding:
"I'm not the leader of the opposition anymore."David
