another PR nightmare for the Bush crew on the road
Clinton's Shadow Follows Bush in Africa
Fri Jul 11, 9:15 PM ET

By DARLENE SUPERVILLE, Associated Press Writer

ENTEBBE, UGANDA - President Bush (news - web sites) is thousands of
miles away from Washington, yet even here, he cannot escape the long
shadow of his predecessor.

A room at the Imperial Botanical Beach Hotel
here along the shores of Lake Victoria was
renamed the Clinton Imperial Suite after
President Clinton (news - web sites) stayed in it
on a visit to Uganda during his 1998 tour of
sub-Saharan Africa.

Reporters who accompanied Bush to the hotel
Friday for his private meeting with Uganda's
president Yoweri Museveni and tour of an AIDS
(news - web sites) support center filed their stories and sound bites from the
nearby Clinton Pavilion.

And after Bush lands in Nigeria late Friday, the final stop on five-day tour of
sub-Saharan Africa, his black limousine and the rest of his motorcade will
whiz down Bill Clinton (news - web sites) highway en route to the hotel
where he is to spend the night.
