Bill Clinton: Pregnant Staffer Among Kenya Mall Shooting Victims (VIDEO)

Former President Bill Clinton said his organization personally experienced loss in the Nairobi mall shooting, telling CBS that a pregnant employee of the Clinton Global Initiative was killed in the attack.

Clinton told "CBS This Morning" that an employee in the organization's health access program -- "which works on getting the world's cheapest AIDS and malaria drugs and building health systems around Africa" -- was among those killed in Kenya.

"She actually worked in Tanzania. And I saw her just a couple weeks ago in Dar es Salaam when I was there, but she was nine months pregnant, just a couple of weeks away from delivery," Clinton said. "So, she and her baby's father were walking in that mall in Nairobi, because she wanted to have the baby in Kenya. She thought that would be best. And they were both killed."

6. Why is it former Democratic presidents

Why is it former Democratic presidents seem to align themselves with charitable organizations, good works, and generally live productive lives helping humanity (see: Jimmy Carter) while all we ever hear about former Repug presidents are million dollar lecture circuits, chairing the board for multi-nationals and narcissistic cat painting projects?

Rhetorical questions, I know. But for the party that consistently tries to paint itself as the "Jesus" party those ex-presidents sure don't seem much concerned with good deeds of any kind, do they?

8. George W. Bush has raised billions for HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment

He's a much better ex-President than he was a President...

10. So sad

I am very sad and I think these are some serious problems in this world, which we should consider seriously. I do not understand what these idiots get from this.
