Reuters is reporting the following:



WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been in discussions with the White House about leaving her job next year to become head of the World Bank, sources familiar with the discussions said on Thursday.

The former first lady and onetime political rival to President Barack Obama quickly became one of the most influential members of his cabinet after she began her tenure at State in early 2009.

She has said publicly she did not plan to stay on at the State Department for more than four years. Associates say Clinton has expressed interest in having the World Bank job should the Bank's current president, Robert Zoellick, leave at the end of his term, in the middle of 2012.

"Hillary Clinton wants the job,'' said one source who knows the secretary well.

A second source also said Clinton wants the position.

A third source said Obama has already expressed support for the change in her role. It is unclear whether Obama has formally agreed to nominate her for the post, which would require approval by the 187 member countries of the World Bank.

















The White House declined to comment

Uh, she'll be leaving her job next year whether she wants to or not. I can see November from my house.

That's interesting, especially after a guy at church told me today that she is supportive of a one world currency.

I agree with you. But here in this country you don't need any qualifications for a high level job--just look who is in the White House. (I'm still trying to figure that one out).

I expect the big zero can't stand her in the same way he hated Rahn, so she's being pushed out into some figurehead position

Quite who actually decided that Obama should have been the POTUS candidate, can anyone elucidate, especially since he was an unknown at the time

Pay her enough, offer enough executive perks and she'll do as she's told and smile while endorsing the organization's policies. Those are the only qualifications necessary for the job.

She is SUCH a lizard...
