but I'd kill for Hillary to be our next President.

There's not a dime's worth of difference between Hillary and Obama. Her speech to ACORN in 2006:

SOCIAL JUSTICE: ACORN’s 2006 National Convention

That was so nice, oh, thank you all, thank you. Good Morning ACORN.

My goodness, this place is filled. All of you coming together on behalf of a progressive agenda for our country; and I came first and foremost to say thank you. You know, I am one of those who remembers the beginnings of ACORN in Arkansas all of those years ago. The headquarters for ACORN was near the Governor's mansion. And I started a group called Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families and we worked on a lot of important issues and I noticed just the other day that the minimum wage was raised in Arkansas thanks to ACORN and the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families.

In the ‘real world’ its called money laundering through a shell front.

Nothing new here. And yes, its usually considered illegal.

I wonder if it’s activities fall under RICO somehow? Wouldn’t that be a bite in the a$$... specially since Kennedy was the guy most responsible for expanding RICO (and then using it against Right-to-Life orgs).
