Wealthy potential donors to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) were courted with promises of access to the president, a Washington Post analysis of internal DNC emails released by WikiLeaks has found. The party insiders' pitches appear to be in violation of White House policy, the newspaper notes.

Democrats can gain power if the US is a banana republic.
The Post trying to put out something to make it seem like they aren’t parrots for the DNC.
“”The party insiders’ pitches appear to be in violation of White House policy, the newspaper notes.””
Violation of WH policy? Not in violation of any other law???? How interesting.
So an article about Obama as he’s ready to leave office. Thanks, Wapo!
Not impressed.
BTTT
Gee this is as momentous a piece of news since it was determined the sun rises in the east, sarcasm.
Anyone recall the Lincoln bedroom incident of Mrs Clintoons husband era. It has been going on in dem politics since the dawn of time. They are experts in the pay for play arena.
Of course they did. You don't expect anything less from the Rats, do you?
You just can’t have “Chicago politicians” without “rampant corruption”.
It’s like trying to have pizza without the sauce, or the Kardashians without the freakshow - simply cannot physically exist!!!
Oh boy it’s like having access to a septic tank.
WASHINGTON A new study details how President Barack Obama has been inviting his Obama Foundation donors to events at the White House, a venue that obviously wont be available to him to entertain mega contributors in a few months. The Obama Foundation, created on Jan. 31, 2014, has to date only 39 contributors, with the money coming either from individuals or foundations controlled by Obama supporters.
The nonprofit, nonpartisan oversight Maplight Foundation found that 15 of the 39 have been to the White House for small meetings or events, fewer than 30 attendees, including everyone connected to a contribution of more than $100,000.
Most of the donors have been longtime political supporters and friends or at least acquaintances of Obama and have been in and out of the White House for years.
However, Maplight found that at an intimate White House dinner in January 2015 with actress Julia Roberts, the guests included two couples who had recently made jumbo contributions to the Chicago-based foundation.
And as 2015 progressed, one of the couples at the dinner kicked in even more, the foundation IRS report released last Friday reveals.
Among those at the January 2015 dinner were Mark Gallogly, the managing partner of Centerbridge Partners, an investment firm, and his wife, Lise Strickler. At that point, the New York couple had donated $340,000 to the foundation.
By the end of 2015, they put in an additional $330,000 for a total of $670,000. I checked to see what else was new: Gallogly and Strickler were invited to the State Dinner the Obamas hosted in March for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
In 2014, Tom Campion, owner of the Zumiez clothing chain and his wife, Sonya, gave the foundation $500,000. The Seattle couple found themselves at the Julia Roberts dinner along with folks who have also been longtime Obama backers. Another guest that evening was one of Obamas favorite authors, Marilynne Summers Robinson.
The White House has said and underscored this again on Wednesday at the daily briefing when asked about the Maplight report that the Obamas are not fundraising for the foundation while in office. Well, no one is selling tickets to anything, thats accurate. Thats not how fundraising at the mega level is done.
Obama will have to raise hundreds of millions of dollars to construct and endow his Obama Presidential Center on Chicagos South Side. Fundraising at the elite donor level is an art, a nuanced dance, especially for an institution that will exist in perpetuity.
Small dinners are not put on Obamas daily guidance and schedule. On April 2, 2016, the White House volunteered that Obama and first lady Michelle hosted their first White House event for supporters of the Obama Foundation. That dinner was not a fundraiser, the White House said.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said: What we have said about donors to the campaign also applies to donors at the foundation, and its simply this: Donating in support of the Presidents foundation does not guarantee you a meeting with the President of the United States. It also doesnt prevent you from getting a meeting with the President of the United States, and thats the approach that weve taken, again, with regard to supporters of the Presidents campaign, and its the approach that weve taken with regard to supporters of the Presidents foundation.
A lot of this is prospecting for the future.....M/M have Big plans to get-rich-quick ala the Clintons.
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/sweet-inside-look-obama-foundation-fundraising/
M/M Obama’s get—rich-quick game.
Americans must demand to see fund solicitation letters coming out of Obama’s tax-exempt presidential foundations and his Chicago library fund.
Are any of his WH comments used to forward his policy being regurgitated in fund solicitation latters?
Americans demand to know if US govt policy is being wrongly used....in an effort to raise tax-free money for the Obamas.
US TAXPAYERS PAY NOW-—Obama collects later.
Obama’s federal giveaways (that we know of).:
<><> $150 billion to Muslim Iran in the nuclear deal,
<><> $2 billion funding to his half brother Malik’s organization-—the Muslim Brotherhood,
<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack’s tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya.
<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.
<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich Muslim African Muslim countries.
<><> there’s the billions missing from the Obamacare scam.
<><> Michele talked about teaching girls, then Obama sent her off to oil-rich Muslim Quatar w/ $73 million US tax dollars to teach girls.
<><>Obama gave Michele 100 million to take on her recent trip to Morocco to teach Muslim girls.
Of course, Obama knew nothing....the Clintons' jerking around US policy for cash NEVER-EVER interfered / Obama's foreign policy (cue laugh machine).
========================================
REALITY CHECK Hillary's emails on TPP are still being hidden from the public. But Hillary's support for TPP is understandable as illustrated by the TPP map. Think get rich quick Clinton Foundation and the Obama Foundations (smirk).
Obama considers TPP central to his presidential legacy and to his foreign policy and economic (gag) legacies. TPP is best understood against the backdrop of Obama's post-presidential get-rich-quick foundation plans.
NOW ISN'T THIS INTERESTING? few, if any, of the RCEP
and TPP countries contributed to the buck-raking Clinton Foundation.
Looks like the Clintons and Obama divvied up the globe so that each have their own countries in order to collect big buck get-rich-quick foundation donations, honorarium, cosultancies, and int'l insider business deals.
======================================
THE FACTS ARE THESE Obama's trade deal giveaway is a huge scam...best examined against the backdrop of Obama's two tax-exempt foundations (two-that we know of).
Obama's priming the pump for donations to his two Foundations.
All of Obama's thinly-veiled actions....
(1) promoting fast-track TPA and TPP,
(2) his refugee/immigration suck-ups
(3) his non-action WRT ISIS, IRAN....
.....are best understood against the backdrop of Obama's future get-rich-quick plans as an ex-president----more specifically, his two get-rich-quick Foundations (two foundations that we know of).
All the Muslim entities control billions of dollars---and Obama is lying-in-wait for his share: foreign donations, lucrative insider trade deals from untapped resources, energy deals, telecom deals, arms sales, consultancies, million dollar honorarium...and so on and so forth.
===================================================
WIKI REFERENCE: Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is a proposed free trade agreement (FTA) between the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) (Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) and the six states with which ASEAN has existing FTAs (Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand). RCEP negotiations were formally launched in November 2012.
