NPR's Jon Greenberg reports that President Clinton's nominee to head the Central Intelligence Agency, Michael Carns, has withdrawn his nomination. The move came after the FBI discovered that Carns may have violated U.S. immigration law by helping someone he knew enter the United States from the Phillipines. Today, President Clinton named John Deutch, the number two man at the Defense Department, to replace Carns as the nominee to head the nation's spy agency.
