THE CLINTON MO:
ONE HAND IN SOMEBODY'S POCKET, ONE HAND IN HILLARY'S CAMPAIGNS,
ONE FOOT IN THE CLINTON FOUNDATION, ONE FOOT IN GOVT

Dennis Cheng
Chief Development Officer
Clinton Foundation

Director of Development and Philanthropy
Clinton Foundation

A Clinton Foundation source noted that while Dennis Cheng is leaving this week, he will continue to work as a "volunteer" through the foundation's March 4 annual gala.

Cheng served as deputy chief of protocol in the Clinton State Department and was Clinton's New York State finance director on her 2008 campaign.

It's difficult to separate the Clintons' political lives from their personal and charitable endeavors; Hillary's new campaign finance director, Dennis Cheng, was recently chief development officer for the Clinton Foundation.

While Hillary Clinton mulled her presidential run, Dennis Cheng pulled double duty for a short time:

(1) Working as the chief development officer at The Clinton Foundation, and,

(2) building a 2016 fundraising team.

Cheng, who is credited with raising more than $248 million for the Clinton Foundation since 2011, will fill Hillary's top campaign finance post and take on the daunting task of fortifying what is expected to be a billion-dollar campaign.

He joined the Foundation in 2011 after serving as Deputy Chief of Protocol of the United States, where he was responsible for overseeing the official visits of foreign heads of state and for organizing bilateral and multilateral summits hosted by President Obama, Vice President Biden, and Secretary Clinton.

Prior to joining Hillary's U.S. Department of State, Dennis served as national finance director and New York finance director for Secretary Clinton.

Cheng left the State Department to work at the Clinton Foundation, where he helped the massive global charity drum up millions of dollars in contributions. Prior to his time at State, Cheng served as finance director on Clinton's previous Senate and presidential campaigns.

Since joining in 2011, Cheng has raised $248 million for the foundation endowment and worked to diversify the group's priorities. ...

“He was one of the leaders of the Clinton Foundation apparatus that raised nearly a quarter billion dollars, including money from foreign governments, and remains a key figure of the 2016 operation that’s pledged to raise a record-breaking $2.5 billion.

If gang bangers paid a police chief $400,000 to hear 'a speech' everyone would know it was a bribe.

Wonder if Dennis Cheng gets Trump to run as a Ind and take away votes from the R party and land up with a lot of gov contracts?.
