Obama and McCain, Presidential candidates 2008, and their ties to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
07/23/2008
The important role Fannie and Freddie lobbyists play in the campaigns of Obama and McCain at the highest level would make one rethink of them as agents of change very seriously. Both are promoting their own careers but in this they were promoting their own careers at the risk of the national interest as without the hard and timely work in 3 to 4 weeks of Secretary Paulson, Ben Bernanke and others, the collapse of Fannie and Freddie would have endangered the American and one could also say the world economy.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
