There needs to be much more digging into his dealing while in Chicago. He's up to his eyebrows in the left-wing Chicago political machine.

I’ll be honest, I have no problem with people getting discount and such. What I have a problem with is the people getting the discounts and special treatment turning around and trying to deny it to others.
That is exactly what Obama, and his ilk do.
2006 Interest and Dividend income listed doesn't show much from Northern Trust. I'm certainly no CPA and don't know where all to look on the return but if he had $3 million there wouldn't there be more listed?
“That’s not the super super jumbo gumbo I knew.”
At the end of 2006, Obama’s holdings were worth $455,000 to $1.125 million. When he entered the U.S. Senate in 2005, he reported assets worth between $200,000 and $400,000.
That is from his Seante filings. So we know when he took out the loan in 2005 he did NOT have 3 million $ to put into NOrthern Trust, so that is an outright lie by the Bank.
Example: Senator Dodd's mortgage bailout bill, written by the Bank of America. This is Dodd's pay back to his home mortgage lender.
I am sure it is nothing.... he will say this is not the mortgage broker he has known for years.
The story says the 3 million was “put through”, whatever that means, the bank at some unspecified later date. It is not uncommon for banks to give favorable loan rates if individuals or companies keep large (very large) compensating balances in their bank. There is no evidence that at the time of this loan there was any substantial monies in the bank belonging to Hussein.
Someone needs to look and see if any legislation was pending around that time that the bank had an interest in seeing passed or defeated. Perhaps HUSSEIN and his other lib friends who took the cheap money helped them with their votes.

The Obama campaign explained to The Crypt this morning that the Obamas did not get a special deal because of his position in the Senate. Rather, he got the deal because he borrowed $1.3 million but agreed to bring nearly $3 million in assets to the bank, which was more than happy to knock off a few points from his interest rate in order to manage his cash. Such a lower rate is often offered to wealthy individuals if there is competition for the loan, which there was in Obama's case.
Won’t see that headline on MSM.
Yessiree, a true Tribune of the People.
“but agreed to bring nearly $3 million in assets to the bank”
Oh yeah, a Obama/Democrat PROMISE, that’s one you can bank on? Ha!
Gee is this part of the”new kind of politics”? Sure looks like the same old same old from the Dims!
HIGH CORRUPTION!!
“Community Organizer” is a very lucrative career path.
It would be interesting to trace back to the source of the supposed down payment. It seems to be a six figure sum of money.
Not the sort of sum one usually thinks of for community organizers, or young state legislators.
So what did Hillary overlook? Or was there an agreement to not go into personal finances in the primary?
