Hmmm then what about Obama publishing a book when he is standing for election?
How about Dan Rather? Did he make in-kind contributions to the Dem platform?

The fed needs the money and the MSM are donating their services.
They have a criminal mindset; that’s their frame of mind.
The Democrats are helping to make that book a success.
Staring.
