ANDREW TOBIAS, Treasurer

DNC Treasurer since 1999, Andrew Tobias was born and raised in New York. He majored in Slavic Languages and Literature at Harvard, but spent most of his time running the million-dollar student business conglomerate and publishing "Let's Go: The Student Guide to Europe."

After graduating in 1968, he had a brief sojourn in the high-flying world of business, rising to a VP spot at then-hot/then-not National Student Marketing Corporation (about which he wrote "The Funny Money Game," his first book to gain wide national attention).

At 23, he entered Harvard Business School, writing for New York Magazine on the side and, upon graduation, as a Contributing Editor. When NYM was sold, he followed Clay Felker to Esquire. He had a column for several years in Time, and is Personal Finance Editor of Parade.

He has written three New York Times best-sellers: "Fire and Ice: the Charles Revson/Revlon Story" ("The perfect book" -- The Wall Street Journal); "The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need" ("The only investment guide many will indeed ever need." -- Barron's); and "The Invisible Bankers: Everything the Insurance Industry Never Wanted You to Know" ("Entertaining and irreverent." -- Fortune).

His coming of age memoir, "The Best Little Boy in the World," was added to the Modern Library series in September 1998 to coincide with its 25th anniversary and publication of the sequel -- "The Best Little Boy in the World Grows Up."

Andrew Tobias' "Managing Your Money," a software program he helped to create, dominated its market for several years and helped hundreds of thousands of people take control of their finances.

In the fall of 1997, he co-hosted "Beyond Wall Street," an eight-part PBS documentary.

He has received the Gerald Loeb Award for Distinguished Business and Financial Journalism, Harvard Magazine's 1998 Smith-Weld Prize, and the Consumer Federation of America Media Service Award.

He has worked actively to discourage kids from becoming smokers and to reform the auto insurance system.

His daily comments can be found at www.andrewtobias.com.

Item: 1548

First Name: Elizabeth
Last Name: Porter

And there are dozens more. Some look like legit contributions others, all high dollar amounts - $5000 or more all share the same phone number. That particular phone number - 202-488-5015 rings in to a voicemail box at the DNC in Washington DC. I wonder if anyone at the FEC is looking at these contributions. And I thought the Dems didn't approve of anonymous big donor contributions?

I worked at MECA software, supporting and writing the MYM software. Never met him, but I got the full bio and met some people who knew him.

So it’s all 3rd party stuff. Apparently he was a good guy - friendly and respectful. That said he was and is a liberal. So all of the conservative friends in the world isn’t going to make him not an enemy.

I’ve looked at his plans and economics before and never found him to be shady. I was a financial analyst at the time, but not investigating him.

He just didn’t raise any flags immediately.

“Seed corn” is a metaphor often used for either funding a continuing funding process or providing early stage funding for something in general.

It looks like there are names for all those donors, so maybe they were just directing their donors to some particular fundraising effort the DNC had going on? E.g., maybe their treasurer was matching, or had a source that was matching, such funds?
