Your articles about Evercore and various Democratic party officials are interesting. However, aren't there just as many BCCI connections to various Republican officials?

I think that trying to pin BCCI on one party or the other is to fundamentally misunderstand it.

I had no interest in pinning the B.C.C.I. on anybody or anything. In fact, my learning of Clark Clifford's support for Jesse Jackson, actually started the whole search, when I walked into a Walden Books store which was once located near the old Executive Office building (the old Dept. of State Bldg.) to the immediate west of The White House.

I was curious to know more about Mr. Clifford. But instead of finding obvious, or in the public eye, links between them (Jackson and Clifford), it was easy to stumble upon the banking links between Mr. Clifford and the B.C.C.I. and the Washington liberal elite.

Indeed, the "higher-ups" of "the left" do "rub elbows" with "the right."

But I did not really look in the direction of B.C.C.I., any further, because what stood out, was the plentitude of left-wing organizations and their officers.

Now that was interesting, because of the image the Democrats like to portray themselves as, a party of the poor. But in spite of that image, to find out how not poor, but actually very well connected and endowed, is the Democrat Party.

And, how incredibly well-engineered, are its many sub-divisions of political action agencies.

I was interested in that, because there was what the "liberal media" have been keeping from the public for decades.

Well, then, after all that look around in the 1980's, along comes Bill Clinton and members of his administration, who started to ring bells.

So I take another look, reviewing where I left off, back in the '80's, and promptly, I found connected to the "health care crisis," various prominent Clintonistas.

My 2 cents for you and all, is to pay careful attention to the organization, People for the American Way. That organization is not, never was, for America's great foundations.

It is not necessary to "try" to "pin" on the Democrats. It is easier to pluck one of the many pins stuck to them.
