Other than that I don't know him personally. I'm sure he'd make a good drinking buddy.

You referring to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - the acutal President of Iran??
Mohammed Khatami is not the President of Iran as was stated in the thread title and first post. Khatami is an ex President of Iran obviously doing the lecture circuit.
Khatami adopted a more moderate attitude in foreign policy and certainly more concilatory than in the past - despite a track record of agression being shown by certain countries.
He sure don't have an ego problem CDS - he's actually a very intelligent guy with sense.
