Does anyone know anyone who has benefited from the Clinton Foundation's efforts?
   
Either directly (preferably) or indirectly?

I am thinking it would be useful to put together editorials and maybe even a viral ad highlighting how people have benefited from the Foundation to help refute the impression the media is giving that money to the Clinton Foundation goes into the Clintons' pockets.

I am sure the Foundation has that information but they probably can't coordinate with the campaign or shouldn't even if they can, as it plays right into the narrative that the Foundation is too connected to Hillary's career.

It would be great if those of us who do not work for the campaign could get some grantees and beneficiaries to speak up about the good work the Foundation does to help rebut the narrative and help ensure that the important work the Clinton Foundation does is not jeopardized by the smear campaign.

4. Sorry, no. There are projects here in the U.S., but if

I knew someone who was being educated on the critical importance of chatting with and reading to her toddler, she might not know. 

This reminded me of the DUMBEST post of the day yesterday.  I could never find it again now, but the DUmmie said,

"Her foundation takes money from wealthy people and gives it to the poor."  Can you believe what ****ing idiots they are? 

No, DUmbass.  Her foundation takes money from wealthy people and launders it.  It ends up with wealthier people.

It was funny, I did a search over there to find my quote.  The search returns were astounding, all the Hillary bashing going on over there during primary season. 


A word of advice:  Don't go to google images and ask for crickets.

Why don't you jet down to Haiti and ask that question?

Along with the Russians and the Chinese military.  That's about it.

Speaking of which, did anyone on DU figure out the significance of the nickname, "Killery"?

But how many of the ones who figured it out were actually moles trying to perform an act of kindness?

That is hard to ever guess but my estimate is the DUmp is almost 50% moles at this point.

The Clinton Money Laundry Operation gives less than 10% to actual stated charitable purposes. However. the CMLO does give almost 60% to the Clinton Crime Family.

So there is that.

"Eighty-five percent of every dollar donated to the Clinton Foundation ended up either with the Clintons or with their staff to pay for travel, salaries, and benefits. Fifteen cents of every dollar actually went to some charitable beneficiary."

They rate this mostly false but the logic is circumflex. 

Reminds me of an old drive in story:  Little Billy watches as the ushers pass the carton labeled 'Jimmy Fund' at intermission.  Next day he is out with his own carton labeled 'Billy Fund'.  Friends of Bill and Hill get high paying jobs and contracts as payback for loyal service. Disloyal friends get a different kind of payback also known as "two in the hat".
