Barack Obama And Valerie Jarrett Linked To Iranian Socialism, Campaign Contribution Corruption, And Indoctrination Of Youth

How much truth and how much fiction?

Fiction leaves skips, with the truth the pieces all fit.

EXCERPT

If you were unfamiliar with Valerie Jarrett's past, I would think that it is interesting to start with her birth. She was born in Shiraz, Iran in 1956, where her father, James Bowman, was working as a doctor for an American program intended to aid developing countries strengthen their health efforts.

While in Shiraz, Bowman had become acquainted with a prominent Iranian by the name of Mohamed Nemazee. It was during his stay in Iran that James Bowman, as well as Mohamed Nemazee, had allegedly gotten involved in pro-communist movements, including such organizations as the Tudeh Party of Iran, that called for the nationalization of such industries like oil, in which the Nemazee had also been involved with, but the crackdown following the 1953 Coup against Masaddeq forced both of these men to curtail any public support, which eventually led to Bowman leaving to London in 1961, and then later returning to Chicago in 1963.

It is also interesting to note that Valerie Jarrett's mother, Barbara Bowman, was responsible for the founding of the Erikson Institute, which counted William Ayers’ father as a Chairman of the Board Of Trustees. It was a result of the her and her husband's socialist involvement in Iran that led her to the creation of the Erikson Institute, along with philanthropist Irving B. Harris, social worker Lorrain Wallach, and child psychologist Maria Piers. It's original mission was to provide teachers with education on understanding the role family and culture play on a child's life. This area of study was essential in establishing early education lesson plans designed to indoctrinate the youth.

I return to Jarrett's father, James Bowman, and his association with Mohamed Nemazee. Mohamed, while known as the founder of his namesake hospital in Iran, he is also the father of Hassan Nemazee, who was a top fundraiser for not only the Democratic Party, but for Barrack Obama. It is also interesting that Nemazee was arrested in August of this year for defrauding banks of $292 million dollars to fund his political activism.

The investment banker Robert Wolf first met Barack Obama one afternoon in December in a midtown conference room. Obama was in town to deliver a speech at a charity dinner for children in poverty at the Mandarin Oriental—but also to pursue another, less high-minded, but more momentous, objective: to begin the process of attempting to pick Hillary Clinton’s pocket.

The conference room belonged to George Soros, the billionaire bête noire of the right. After talking to Soros for an hour about his prospective bid for the White House, Obama walked down the hall and found assembled a dozen of the city’s heaviest-hitting Democratic fund-raisers: investment banker Hassan Nemazee, Wall Street power Blair Effron, private-equity hotshot Mark Gallogly, hedge-fund manager Orin Kramer. Most had been big-time John Kerry backers in 2004. Most had a connection to the Clintons. All were officially uncommitted for 2008.

CONNECTIONS?

Path to Power

Like Obama, Jarrett has a somewhat unusual life story, something they bonded over when the two first met in 1991.

Jarrett’s father [see below] was a doctor, and in the 1950s, he and his wife, Barbara, who is an expert in early childhood development, moved to Shiraz, Iran, about 500 miles south of Tehran. He was part of a program that sent American doctors and agriculture experts to developing nations,

and Jarrett was born in 1956 at Nemazee Hospital, the brand-new hospital for which he father worked. They lived in Iran for six years, and moved to England for one year before returned to Chicago and settling in Hyde Park

Nemazee Capital, established in 1987, invests in health care, media, oil and natural gas and other industries, according to the firm’s Web site. The firm has more than $3 billion under management, according to a July press release.

Hassan Nemazee was born in Washington in 1950 and graduated with honors from Harvard University in 1972, according to his Web site.

The online site lists affiliations with institutions including the RAND Center for Middle East Public Policy, the Asia Society, Harvard’s Center for International Affairs

and Nemazee Hospital in Shiraz, Iran, which was built into a modern facility by his father, Mohamed Nemazee, according to the site.

Nemazee Fallout

Poster:

Here’s the US Attorney of the Southern District Preet Bharara’s complaint against Democratic mega-donor Hassan Nemazee, the chairman of Nemazee Capital Corp. who was arrested today on charges that he used phony documents to trick Citigroup Inc. into lending him up to $74 million.

Nemazee is perhaps best known as a fundraiser for both President Obama and former Sen. Hillary Clinton.

He also served as national finance chairman for the DSCC when it was headed by Sen. Chuck Schumer, which is sort of ironic, considering that Bharara was, until very recently, working as chief counsel to the senior senator of New York.

Nemazee has maxed out in contributions to both Schumer and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, giving them a total of $4,800 each (two $2,400 checks to Schumer in April - one for the primary, one for the general - and two of the same amount to Gillibrand in June).

Woops. I missed some additional contributions. Nemazee gave Gillibrand $1,000 in 2005 and another $1,000 in 2006. He gave two $2,000 donations to Rep. Carolyn Maloney in 2005. There was also $151,700 to the DSCC between March 2006 and March 2009.

I’m still awaiting word on whether this money will be returned.

Nemazee, Hassan Complaint

Jarrett’s ties to the University of Chicago are longstanding.

Her father, James Bowman, is Professor Emeritus in Pathology and Medicine at the University and the first African American to be tenured in the Division of Biological Sciences. The University’s Bowman Society, which promotes minority health care and diversity in the biological sciences, is named after him.

Intrigue Surrounds a New Iranian American PAC

New York Sun, The (NY) - Monday, July 21, 2003

Author: ADAM DAIFALLAH Staff Reporter of the Sun

WASHINGTON - Senators Schumer, Kennedy, Carper, and two congressmen are listed as guests attending the kickoff of a new Iranian-American political action committee here tomorrow.

The Iranian American Political Action Committee is being established “to raise funds from the Iranian American community to support candidates for political office who have shown a commitment to our community’s domestic concerns and issues,” according to the group’s Web site.

The Iranian American PAC is led by Hassan Nemazee , a wealthy Iranian-American who has served on the board of the American Iranian Council, a group that advocates resuming ties between Iran and America.

Mr. Nemazee was nominated by President Clinton as ambassador to Argentina but withdrew before getting a confirmation vote in the Senate.

The PAC’s Web site says that Messrs. Kennedy, Schumer, and Carper, Rep. Steny Hoyer, a Democrat of Maryland, and Rep. Darrell Issa, a Republican of California, will be featured guests at a cocktail reception here tomorrow night at the Phoenix Park Hotel.

But a spokesman for Mr. Issa, Frederick Hill, said the event is “not on his schedule and never was on his schedule.” A spokesman from Mr. Carper’s office said that the event was on his schedule but that he wasn’t sure if he’d be attending. Calls to spokesmen for Mr. Kennedy on Friday and Mr. Schumer yesterday were not returned.
