I've Been Thinking:
Here is a name from the past ---- Ahmadinejad.
Yes, Mahmoud Ahamdinejad, former president of Iran, just opened a web page. The page features a smiling photo of Ahmadinejad with the caption "Coming Back Soon." That seems to be his new theme: Coming Back Soon.
It looks like the former political leader is setting the stage to make a comeback in the upcoming elections, set for next year.
The past few years have been a PR nightmare for Ahmadinejad. Many in his inner circle have been convicted of corruption in various forms.
His vice president, for example, was just convicted and sentenced to 5 years in prison and a $300,000 fine. The charges were so problematic that even other right wing politicians saw Ahmadinejad as toxic and moved away from him.
Ahmadinejad has been out of the public eye.
Now he is preparing to re-enter and he needs to distance himself from the corruption and present a new face.
Ahmadinejad is very conservative - and that message is very powerful in many parts of Iran. Do not discount him. There are many positions of power that he may be seeking. And one of those positions is most certainly a return to the presidency.
