Albright to host foreign leaders at DNC

In a meeting today with The Denver Post's editorial board, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said she hopes to use her hometown's hosting of the 2008 Democratic National Convention to begin to repair the United States' reputation abroad.

According to a report by Denver Post reporter Chuck Plunkett, she'll start the process through a diplomatic organization she chairs, the National Democratic Institute (NDI), which expects to bring as many as 600 heads of state, prime ministers, ambassadors and party officials from 100 nations to the Denver 2008 DNC. Typically, the DNCC is able to give NDI 300 to 400 credentials that the institute uses to rotate its VIPs through key convention periods.
