It’s okay if Obama does it. He’s using the money to try and destroy conservatives. Move on....

Obama gave Pearson Publishing $350 million to create Commoncore text and Pearson gave Obama a $65 million dollar book deal in return.

This is LEGAL money-laundering ….

“They came to Washington to enrich themselves at the expense of you, the American taxpayer.”

Donald Trump said this in the Inaugural address, with many of the perpetrators standing right behind him. It was jawdropping for those paying attention. Will things change?

I don’t know.

Just the thought of Obama being corrupt overwhelms me with white guilt .... or is that half-white guilt.

Don't know enough about this particular instance, but we've had plenty of evidence of Obama’s willingness to ‘bend rules’ or worse over the years since the beginning of his career.

At some point, you've made enough...but not him.

When he said that, he meant you, not him.

I expect MSM coverage of this to commence .... never.

“Obama gave Common Core contract to publisher, got $65-million book deal in return?”

...and we (most of us here) sent our kids to THOSE SCHOOLS (the public schools) that use Common Core.

...so are we any better?

Here is what needs to happen. Judicial Watch must subpoena Pearson Publishing’s records regarding the sale of Obama’s book (if such a book exists) for which he received an advance. If recorded sales don’t match up to the advance then refer this to the Justice Department. JD then conducts their own investigation then haul Obama and Pearson into court, prosecute and imprison them all. And I call myself a realist! LOL! It’ll never happen because only honest, decent people get prosecuted by the government.

It is a disgrace that the rats (Mueller mainly) hauled people into court causing the defendants to spend most of their life savings. There has to be a time when the same thing happens to the rats.

What about that 0bama care software program that hardly worked? Didn’t Moochelle have something to do with awarding that contract to develop that software to a friend of hers?

Don’t forget his Netflix involvement. And I believe Jarrett is on the Board.
