Yes it does. The Foundation itself does not appoint any heads but it does approve that the baord of directors and projects meet their criteria. We know what William Ayers founded the CAC and he received the initial funding from the Foundation. There is still some question just how an inexperienced lawyer with little or no administrative experience was chosen to head it up.

Sorry, but no, it doesn't. Dropping toxic names into the discussion doesn't change that fact. Obama is not "one of their own" simply because he presided over the board of an educational foundation that received a grant from the Annenberg Foundation any more than I'm "one of their own" to the Girl Scouts for being a cookie mom. As to your "question", it's answered in the wikipedia article.

I've already given my analysis which prompted this whole line of discussion. Maybe if you gave yours, we would see how mine was apparently wanting?
I think the word "analysis" means something different to you than it does to me.

Perhaps, but I've never in my lifetime seen a President who changed his story as seamlessly as this President does and who governs as differently from his campaign rhetoric as this President governs. It would be bad enough if he was just inexperienced, naive, and gullible and really believed governing would be as easy as campaigning. But I won't forgive being played for an inexperienced, naive, and gullible fool by that same person.
Well, I quite disagree. He said multiple times that there were no easy solutions to our problems and that it wouldn't get done over night. He was very clear on how difficult it would be. He's backed away from some things that I wish he wouldn't have, but I've seen no drastic swing from his campaign platform.
So, wait, you think Obama played you for an inexperienced, naive, and gullible fool? I thought you voted for McCain. What did Obama promise you that you believe he will not deliver?

I certainly think the 52% of voters who voted for Obama voters were Obama voters, yes.
No, offense, but that isn't what you said.
Quote: Based on the freefall in his approval ratings, I would guess that substantially less than 52% of those same voters would vote for him again if they had a second chance.
Perhaps so. But I doubt that they would give their vote to your party, and I doubt that they see him as some sort of "Marxist-tinged" socialist.
