Can't remember his real name, but I think many remember the Iraqi Information Minister
Quick MSPaint jobbie. Tried to find a bigger original picture, but that one was all I found via a quick Google at lunchtime.

As for the nomination...
To be fair to Hillary (
), she hasn't officially lost yet, & while Obama has declared himself the Democratic Party's candidate, there can be no official candidate until the Convention in August (unless Hillary does finally concede before then).
She does have a chance still - albeit a very slim one. Although Obama has a majority of pledged delegates & superdelegates, & has passed the threshold needed to win, he is only over the threshold because of the superdelegates... Any choices the superdelegates have made are not set in stone until they declare their support for a particular candidate at the Convention. So if for some reason enough of Obama's superdelegates changed their minds by the time of the Convention, Hillary could perhaps win it... (but hopefully not
)
There's also simply the fact that by not conceding yet, she actually has some power...e.g. "I'll only concede if you pick me as VP", "I'll only concede if you offer me XYZ" etc. Obama would probably also benefit a lot from her campaign machine joining his...if she let it.
