Major donor to Obama, Emanuel to host Hillary Clinton fundraiser in Chicago

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton is making her second fundraising visit to Chicago on Tuesday, attending an event at the home of securities trader Rajiv Fernando.

In 2011, Obama appointed Fernando to serve on the International Security Advisory Board, a panel that was charged with advising then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on sensitive security matters.

After the appointment, ABC News raised questions about Fernando’s qualifications for the panel. Days after the report, which also noted Fernando’s contributions to the Clinton Foundation, the trader stepped down from the board, saying he did not have time to serve.

Clinton is asking for $2,700 per person to the event, according to the invitation. By bundling 10 people to attend, a person will become a co-host. Those who put together $50,000 in invitees are labeled hosts for the event and become members of her “Hillstarters” bundling team.

BUMP
...Now there’s reporting that Hillary was allowed to retain top secret clearance even after leaving the SOS office, lame excuse being : “So she could research for her memoirs.”
