The CF is headed by Karen Davis, who was an Asst. Secretary of Health in the Carter administration. The Chairman of the Board is James R. Tallon, a Dem Party politician who was briefly speaker of the NY House.
The CF is just another Dem Party affiliate.
Obama’s court eunuchs at Politico won’t point this out, of course.
