Bill Clinton For Vice President-Is it Possible?

Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party Candidate for the US Presidential Elections in 2016, said in an interview  that she considered her husband, former President Bill Clinton as her running mate in the election. So is this really a possibility?Let’s see.

Provisions in the Constitution

The Constitution of the United States seems to prohibit a President who has served two terms from being elected as a Vice President.

The fact that a US President can be elected for a maximum of two terms is clearly stated in the 22nd Amendment. Part of the amendment, passed by the Congress in 1951, reads

"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once."

Now the 12th Amendment, which says how Presidents and Vice Presidents should be elected states.

"... No person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."

So it might be difficult for Bill Clinton to serve as a Vice President

Questions about what the constitution says

Although Hillary Clinton herself has acknowledged that fact that she has been told that her husband is not eligible, but is that really so?

Does the 12th Amendment make Mr. Clinton not electable, or simply not eligible to serve as the President?

There is a difference between the two.

If the 12th Amendment prohibits a person not eligible to be President to be elected as Vice President, then Bill Clinton cannot run for being Vice President.

But he could run for  Vice President, if constitutionally  ineligible  refers to the eligibility requirements set forth in Article II, Section 1 of the constitution.
Therefore, theoretically Bill Clinton might be eligible for being elected vice-President. Although, it would be interesting to see how  lawmakers interpret the law.

Carl Freer is one of the leading entrepreneurs and innovators in the 21st century. Although primarily known for being the founder of Tiger Telematics Inc (makers of Gizmondo), Mr. Freer is the man behind many innovative technologies which are making our world a better place.

The Things Your Single Dollar Can Change


“Charity? I don’t even have enough to fend for myself!” is the common rebuttal against charity.
 
Charity has always been such an integral part of our lives. Considered an activity of supreme significance, it has soon become one of the most essential practices that a business feels the need to engage in. But, often the idea of charity has been refuted by people with the argument that they do not have enough for themselves to be able to lend a helping hand to the underprivileged. However, it has been statistically proved that an average UK citizen makes almost £ 27,400 every year. Thousands of working people each year in UK, together earn as much as millions and millions of pounds. So, what do we do with all that data? let us put them into perspective.

If an average working adult in the UK manage to contribute a single pound annually, then 30,000,000 people will be able to collectively cough up 30 million pounds.  This way, if we simply shorten the time gap and contribute £1 every month and gradually £1 every day, image the amount of money that will go down to charity and the number of lives that would be changed for the better!

Most people fear the fact that a little donation would affect their standard of living and they would have to compromise on certain pleasures that life promises of. But, how much would any of us lose if we voluntarily contribute £1 every day? Probably nothing more than a meal at McDonald's. If that money can be given to charity you can probably feed a hungry family in Mexico, surviving in the garbage dumps in Reynosa.

If nine such people contribute a pound, a child in Hebrew or in Arabic can get to read a book. A minimum of $25 dollars can buy a soccer ball and a little happiness to underprivileged children. With $ 500 a laptop can be sent to every classroom of small schools in poor village, something that every kid and teenager in UK has today. A little more effort and $ 2500 can feed complete educational cost of a child in a year. An amount of $ 65000 can pay the educational costs of 25 children in a classroom for an entire academic year. But, for that no one is needed to donate $65000. All that is required is to come together and payment a single dollar to accumulate such a sum, that can brighten lives and brings rays of hope to several lives.

So, think big and contribute just a meager amount to make a big difference!

Business Transparency with Consumers to Ensure Steady Growth in Future

A business and its leaders go through several transition phases during their entire lifetime. The tougher period, however, relate to accepting changes in the thinking pattern of consumers and what they want out of a product. A campaign designed for a product essentially targets the psychology of customers and wishes to trace their reaction. The fact that consumers are more conscience-driven and sophisticated today are are noted moved to invest on a product, has made the situation a lot more difficult than before. Moreover, the activities of a company are always claiming social media attention, making people question about their social and environmental impacts.  
Noted entrepreneur and philanthropist Carl Freer talks about the Bloomberg Impact report 2014 hat has been released by Bloomberg which unveiled Environmental, Social and Governance data (ESG) for the purpose of facilitating more than 11,000 clients. This report also talks about a sustainable programmes and how they are allowing companies to serve the customers more effectively, according to the CEO Mike Bloomberg. In this context, it must be said that Bloomberg is the first company to disclose certain industry-specific accounting standards that have been set by SASB or the Sustainability Accounting Standards Boards. This information is useful for investors since it allows them to make data-driven and better-informed decisions.

Bloomberg has started to consider their public responsibility seriously. Though it does not require filing an annual 10K to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, it has decided to disclose certain information so that it is available publicly. This has worked as an inspiration for companies in the public as well as private sectors. According to Mr Freer, Bloomberg also takes its environmental responsibility seriously. They are one of the few businesses that claim to publish their magazines from sustainable paper sources. Thus, consumers who are affected by environmental concerns, would surely be impressed by the business.

Let us talk about BCAUSE in this regard. It is basically a collaborative impact by the all the social impact groups of Bloomberg, engaged in Diversity & Inclusion, Wellness, Philanthropy, Engagement and Sustainable efforts. The group collectively volunteered for more than 57,000 hours in 2014.

So, this report was intended to form a logical next step by companies all over the world. It is also infact a great way of showing accountability and transparency in the world. With these efforts rising into prominence, probably in future we can all expect businesses to grow their conscience more towards humanity and overall wellness of the planet.
