Obama in Atlanta MONDAY
AJC (Atlanta Journal & Constipation) ^ | July 31, 20016 | Greg Bluestein

Posted on 07/31/2016 12:30:59 PM PDT by Broker

The only public event on his schedule is an address to the 95th National Convention of Disabled American Veterans at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Atlanta. A White House official said the speech will discuss “how we can ensure our veterans receive the benefits they have earned, as well as continue expanding opportunities for our service members, veterans, and their families.”

Behind closed doors, Obama will attend an afternoon fundraiser held at the home of business executive Andy Prozes, the former CEO of LexisNexis Group, and Laura Heery, an architect and strategist. (A cool $33,400 to the Clinton campaign gets you through the door and a “photo opportunity.”)

He said he would be the president for ALL Americans. He doesn’t represent half of Americans when he campaigns for his democrat pet. And until November, he will find *legit* business reasons to travel the country, and while he’s there, he might as well do a fundraiser.

Laura Heery (Ponzis spouse) runs Brookwood Group. http://www.brookwoodgroup.com/

Here are some of the projects she will pay for access:
2014 ACEEE Panel 10- Resilient, Sustainable Communities: New Urban Strategies
Analytics around costs, energy use, emissions, and other efficiencies and benefits when construction or retrofit of infrastructure is master-planned at a community scale rather than building-by-building, including: multi-scale (building, community, etc.) comparisons of energy strategies for new construction or retrofit and their actual or predicted outcomes; correlations between energy use and demand profiles with walkscores, mix destinations in a ‘twenty minute neighborhood’, quarter mile radius ‘pedestrian sheds’ for live/work/walk lifestyles, or other livability metrics; correlations between energy, livability metrics, and real estate values and marketing; quantification of energy benefits from walkability, deliberate tree canopy, architectural shade, shadow, solar-reflective materials, and integrated sustainable systems design; measures of resilience during weather, energy and emergency disruptions; and resilience of building clusters, neighborhoods and communities, and linkage to sustainability and how these factors impact new urbanism strategies.

Perfect team: Lexis-Nexis HUMINT + Brookwood $ making.

Very disappointed that the
DAV would invite him to speak. Perhaps he can speak on “Leaving Americans behind in combat”

Yeah, well C-Span was going to cover her speaking event in Ohio starting at 2:45 this afternoon, and she hasn’t shown up yet as of 4:00 - I think she has major health problems - she may make Georgia tomorrow, but I’m guessing she doesn’t make the election in November.....

Health is true wealth and Hillary is a pauper. Obama is a young, evil plotter with great un-fulfilled ambitions. STAY ALERT!

I’m a watchin’ - if not her possible health problems, it’s more emails from Wikileaks - if not that, the pay for play business at the Foundation - and if that doesn’t work, my personal favorite, the missing hundred million the donors say they gave the Foundation that the Foundation says it can’t account for.....

Hillary knows all her shenanigans only embolden her Alinski-ite base.

Understanding the nature of clear and present danger is key to survival. These GRIFTERS will someday face earthly justice. Our Faith assures swift Divine justice

Was there enough Lysol air freshener to clean the air after his invasion. Ugh!

Exactly. So essentially the American taxpayer is helping to raise funds for Hillary.

This has to be illegal!

Perhaps someone in Trump's campaign can point this out.
