Thanks. Good work.

You know, old Joe Kennedy originally made his money smuggling liquor with the Chicago mob. He kept those ties, and it was Mayor Daley (with LBJ) who stole the election for JFK. JFK and Bobbie both kept these connections with the Chicago Mafia (as we know from some of those Dallas conspiracy theories). So maybe Obama’s ties to Caroline go back further than we thought.

It will be interesting to see how well Obama’s Chicago Mafia and Hillary’s Dixie Mafia can work together.

I think it was the NY mob, Frank Costello reputed to be his partner. Actually, I originally read that he had a certain territory and they the rest as “mutually” agreed upon.

I believe they have been. Here is Clinton. Front and Center.

ACORN's People's Platform

But in Little Rock, Hillary Clinton joined the male-dominated Rose Law Firm. The decision, she wrote in her memoir, was partly economic, an effort to secure the family's finances while Bill Clinton pursued a career in politics.

Although she continued to do free legal work for some groups, her new career occasionally put her at odds with constituencies with whom she'd traditionally been aligned. In the late 1970s, a community group won a major victory with the passage of a Little Rock ballot measure regarding utility rates. The proposal aimed to make the rates more affordable by creating a fixed price for the first 400 kilowatt hours of consumption, so low-income customers could have power for their basic needs, said Wade Rathke, the founder of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, the group behind the measure. The measure would have forced large utility users, such as businesses, to pay more.
