1. Where's Obama getting all the money for the "shows"...
If Oprah is giving it to him it is illegal. The people here couldn't stop posting about the guy who did the fund raiser. What is Oprah doing.

3. This is PERSONAL WEALTH. Hillary does not use her PERSONAL

6. Yeah, that's way up from $16M reported in the summer
I don't know if he's added new funds or what happened. I thought it might be a result of his having shifted subprime mortgage investments into his Fortress account. But since Fortress owned those mortgage companies, wouldn't that money have been under Fortress already?
