3. I'm guessing you know the answer but if people haven't heard

here's one story on it. But don't worry, Hillary says she won't shake hands with them or anything.

Bill Clinton's presidential library raised more than 10 percent of the cost of its $165 million facility from foreign sources, with the most generous overseas donation coming from Saudi Arabia, according to interviews yesterday.

The royal family of Saudi Arabia gave the Clinton facility in Little Rock about $10 million, roughly the same amount it gave toward the presidential library of George H.W. Bush, according to people directly familiar with the contributions.

Hmmm, does it rhyme with Fin Haden...?
