“ut the surrounding facts notwithstanding provide a window to the ways in which Hillary Clinton will fund her bid to become the next U.S. President”

I resent the fact that someone would insinuate that Hillary would use ill gotten gain in order to win an election... Shocked... Shocked I tell you!

Burkle is a close friend of former President Bill Clinton, who calls Burkle’s Boeing 757 private jet “Ron Air.”[11] Clinton is employed by Burkle’s investment firm, The Yucaipa Companies. Burkle co-hosted a fundraiser for Hillary Rodham Clinton at his Green Acres Mansion. Burkle and Steve Rattner helped finance Al Gore’s cable Current TV network.[12]

As of May 2007, real estate developer Raffaello Follieri, the boyfriend of actress Anne Hathaway, was being sued by billionaire Ron Burkle for $55 million, an amount which Burkle alleges Follieri and Hathaway spent on a private jet, care for their pet Labrador, and shopping sprees. The money had been intended for a land development project.

Burkle is also a close friend of superstar Michael Jackson[13].

Investments in Cayman Islands tax shelters & Clinton financial dealings

Recent calls for the release of Senator and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and former president Bill Clinton’s tax returns have brought to light the fact that President Clinton is expecting a $20,000,000 payout from Burkle’s supermarket holding company.

Questions raised about the Clinton’s financial dealings with Yupaica include whether or not Bill Clinton has direct investments in the tax shelters, whether he pays full U.S. income tax on the profits from those investments, why the Clintons first claimed the holdings were in Los Angeles and not the Cayman Islands, and how Hillary Clinton, an opponent of offshore tax havens, can rationalize her husband’s alleged offshore business dealings with her public opposition to the practice.

Ron Burkle Has Lady Problems

“I decided to go forward and talk to the IRS about Ron Burkle and all the Machiavellian connections and all the monies and cash exchanged between Ron Burkle and his big buddy Bill Clinton,” she says. Burkle, who likes to fly around on private jets and flirt icky-old-man-style with much younger women has been such a headache for Clinton while his wife is trying to run for President that he had to pretend to cut all ties with the man.
