We have kind of a mind meld, Jarrett said about Obama. And chances are, what he wants to do is what Id want to do. Chicago tycoon Martin Nesbitt identified the source of Jarretts power in the fact that she establishes both Michelle and Baracks whole notion of authenticity. Nesbitt relates she channels the Obamas inner voice, telling them: Thats not you. You wouldnt say that. Somebody else is saying that. Barack Obama wouldnt say that. Jarrett admitted to Vogue, I kind of know what makes them who they are.
Who is this person to whom Jarrett is so indebted and who, we shall see, she calls a personal friend? Marilyn “guerrilla nail” Katz provided security for Students for a Democratic Society at the 1968 Democratic Convention.
That year (1983), Katz became an organizational entrepreneur herself, founding MK Communications, Inc., a public relations firm. Its clients include the ACLU, Amnesty International, Chicagoans Against War & Injustice, Harold Washington 1983-1987 Mayoral Campaign, Lloyd Doggetts senate campaign, Human Rights Watch, Illinois Campaign for Choice, Illinois Coalition Against the Death Penalty, the socialist publication In These Times, the MacArthur Foundation, Mother Jones, National Community Development Initiative (for the Rockefeller Foundation), UAW Local 719, and numerous City of Chicago accounts.
Katz had a few other noteworthy clients: Project Vote, the ACORN-affiliated voter registry that first brought Barack Obama to Chicago as a communist organizer; the Habitat Company; The Joyce Foundation, on whose board Obama sat; and History Makers, which interviewed Valerie Jarrett, her mother, and her father-in-law.

After the inauguration, Jarrett successfully pushed to loosen restrictions barring officials from meeting with lobbyists, a rule enshrined in Obamas executive memo on the Recovery Act, for fear other legitimate concerns raised by civil rights organizations whose directors happen to be registered lobbyists will not be heard.
Jarrett lobbied Obama to create the office of Chief Diversity Officer within the FCC, a position filled by Mark Lloyd, an Alinskyite and former senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, who appears fixated on silencing conservative talk radio. Her intent, according to some, was to change policy by altering the structure of the FCC.
Jarrett also helped recruit Cass Sunstein, who believes in the Fairness Doctrine, has argued we should celebrate tax day, and believes animals should have legal standing to sue humans. (This is a growing movement on the Green Left.
