Obama, like Clinton wants to be "boss" of the UN. It won't happen either, in spite of his bowing to every Tom, Dick and Harry.

You mean "in spite of his bowing to every Abdullah, Faisal and Mohammed."

The first UN Secretary-General was British, but I doubt another SG will ever come from a permanent security council country again as things are.

The Council is composed of five permanent members — China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom and the United States — and ten non-permament members (with year of term's end)
