Is Jennifer Brunner Honest?You decide

Campaign contribution research on Jennifer Brunner for the 2006 campaign

for Ohio Secretary of State

Research provided by the Westlake, Ohio, Glenn Beck 912 meetup group

Does your vote really count?Answer after you watch this

In 2006, 5 states were targeted by Democracy Alliance with something

called “The S.O.S. Project”

In the States, this office most often, controls elections

In 2006, Jennifer Brunner was elected to the office of Secretary of State in Ohio

There are now 34 democrat secretaries of state, 9 more are targeted in 2010

Jennifer Brunner received over $300,000 from unions and union locals in 2006

In 2006, Jennifer Brunner raised over $2,200,000 to run for Ohio Secretary of State

Why so much money to run for a secretary of state office? As you will see newly formed left wing organizations developed a strategy to change

elections in America. Iowa, Nevada, Minnesota, New Mexico, and Ohio were all targeted by these groups, giving millions to candidates that would

do their bidding. All 5 offices changed party affiliation.

She received campaign contributions from 454 lawyers for over $220,000

Jennifer Brunner received over $300,000 from the Ohio Democratic Party. The money donated to the the ODP, was

donated by some of the same groups that donated directly to her.

She was provided with over $360,000 in campaign contributions from herself, her family, and her family’s law firm

In the rest of the country, the average total amount raised by a candidate for secretary of state was $275,000

funds many contributor organizations with over

$3,000,000 in union dues

Capital and a partner in “Democracy Alliance”, gave $10,000

directly to JB and $15,000 to the ODP

them, “America Votes”. donated $10,000 to JB

Nancy Pelosi’s dep.ch.of staff, also president of

“Planned Parenthood”, Cecile Richards, founded

“America Votes”

Before we move on with Jennifer Brunner, it seems appropriate to

explain, just a little, how the corruption is

perpetrated. It begins with a complex system of small groups of folks that

have an agenda for America that none of us want. The republicans

are every bit as corrupt as the democrats. They each, just have different

agendas.

The diagram to the right is a “Muckety Map”. It shows relationships and

connections between people (pink) and

organizations (blue). What I can’t show you is

the extent that these relationships permeate

the system.

On some of the colored squares you can see a small plus sign. This

expands the relationship of that person or group further. It would take

thousands of slides and hundreds of hours to view

the intricate fabric of these connections, so I will only show you two.

Yes just two, and you will see how the money

moves through the system and corrupts our

elections. Hundreds of small organizations have been created to funnel the main pool of money. It is then handed to people to contribute to candidates.

The candidates are interviewed by these small entities. If they want the money, they

have to play ball.

Let’s talk about EMILY”S List for a few

minutes. Emily’s list purports on their web site

to be “dedicated to building a progressive America by electing

democrat women….” It gave $50,000 to Ohio democrat candidates including $11,000 to Jennifer Brunner

“Catalist” is an organization that exists “to nurture a vibrant, growing, progressive

community” by maintaining and using a

high tech database of information on every

American of voting age.

Do you remember “America Votes” from the Democracy Alliance slide?

Well, Emily’s list is a member of “America

Votes” and if you remember, was founded

by Cecile Richards who is now Nancy Pelosi’s Dep.Chief of Staff.

America Votes has three large lobbying firms

spending millions to pass legislation and gain

influence over candidates.

Now watch how little Susie Buell fits in to the

program

Major fundraiser

Little Susie is the sink of the operation. The money comes

in through the faucet and goes out through the drain.

Our innovative “campaign finance reform” created a maximum contribution of

$10,000. Both parties create these complex organizations, with hundreds of members, hundreds of employees, and

hundreds of contributors that are given the money and then

told where to send it. This way candidates that are slated to win get millions of dollars funneled to them. Is there a quid pro quo? Why would you go through this much

trouble? You decide.

This is only a very small strand in the giant web of

corruption that’s overwhelming our political

system.

Oh, the tangled web we weave…..

There was a large contributor to Jennifer Brunner that seemingly had no connection to these organized groups. His name is S. Daniel Abraham. He

has a truly American story, being poor and is now the founder of Slim-Fast. He lives in Florida now, but is from New York. It seemed his only interest

was freedom and security for Israel and other Jewish causes. Then why give $10,000 to a secretary of state candidate in Ohio? Watch this:

Mr. Abraham is a large donor of the “Birthright Israel Foundation”

Have you ever heard the name Marc Rich? He also is a donor to the “Birthright Israel Foundation”. He was prosecuted and convicted of tax fraud by Rudy Guiliani. His lawyer was Scooter Libby, Dick Cheney’s

former chief of staff. And he was pardoned by Bill Clinton.

Now, guess who arranged the pardon? Then U.S. attorney……now…

Another of Mr. Rich’s attorneys was Jack Quinn, former chief of staff for vice president Al Gore

Attorney General, Eric Holder

Coincidence? You decide.

Here are some other state races for the secretary of state office and how much money

was raised.

$364,000 (4 candidates)Idaho

In 2006 Jennifer Brunner raised

$2,266,079 in campaign contributions to run for secretary of state. She had three opponents

who combined, raised $2,058,000 in campaign

funds for a total of $4,324,079

(3 candidates)

Wisconsin

Arizona

South Carolina

Kansas

$112,460 (4 candidates)

$345,617 (3 candidates)

$427,525 (6 candidates)All together the five states targeted by the S.O.S Project raised

$8,942,002

Within all the states that have elections for a secretary of state (38) the average amount each candidate raised was $275,354. In the 5 states targeted, the average amount raised was three

times the national average and Jennifer Brunner had over 8 times times the national average.

Be patient, just a few more of Jennifer Brunner’s large, out of state contributors and who they are

Deborah and Andy Rappaport, Woodside, CA, $20,000, Founders of New Democratic Network, another organization funded by Democracy Alliance

Philip D. Murphy, Red Bank, NJ, $10,000, Trustee of Center for American Progress, and national finance chair for the DNC. The Center for American

Progress is funded by George Soros and Herbert Sandler

Richards is the pres.

Moveon.org, Berkley, CA, $10,000, Another organization Funded by George Soros and Herbert Sandler. Moveon.org is also a member of America

Votes

Of the 192 individuals and organizations that gave more than $2000 to Jennifer Brunner, 54 of those contributors were from another state.

Be patient, just a few more of Jennifer Brunner’s large, out of state contributors and who they are

This one was really difficult to dig out….Kim Lund, Minneapolis, MN, $10,000, Works at Mindsharp, an education org., Kim lists her occupation as “homemaker”. She is a contributor to The Minneapolis Foundation. She also has her own $25,000 self-directed fund called the Kim Lund Fund at the Women’s Foundation of Minneapolis and another $20,000 self-directed fund at the Democracy Fund. The WFM passes out big grants in conjunction with TMF through the Democracy Fund, which is a community organizing fund that provides grants to dozens of community groups including ACORN .

The Minneapolis Foundation is funded with $30 million from Robins, Kaplan, Miller, and Cerisi Law Firm. And guess where they get their money?

Would you believe $6.6 billion, yes, billion with a B, from the Minnesota tobacco settlement. Is this convoluted or what?

“21st Century Democrats”, $10,000, Run by Mark Lotwis, a democratic operative. Lotwis also gave $25,000 to Richard Cordray, county treasurer, who then gave $5,000 to Brunner and $89,000 to the Ohio Democratic Party

and dozens of other Ohio Candidates

Norman Hsu, New York, NY, $3,000, Convicted of illegal campaign finance bundling in 1992, skipped bail and was a fugitive for 16 years.

Caught in 2008, now serving a 3 year jail sentence.

Gerard and Lilo Leeds, Boston, MA, $10,000, Founders of Alliance for Excellence in Education, has two lobbying firms representing 244 fund

raising organizations. The lobbying firms have as an advisor, Ben Nighthorse Campbelle, a former Senator.

Swanee Hunt, Cambridge, MA, $5,000, Sister of Lamar Hunt owner of the Chicago Bulls

Be patient, just a few more of Jennifer Brunner’s large, out of state contributors and who they are

“Keeping America’s Promise”, Washington D.C., $5,000, An $8 million contributor to 12 democratic senators and 43 democratic congressmen.

Receives some funding from Robins, Kaplan, Miller, and Cerisi law firm, yep, the same one that gave $30 million to the Minneapolis Foundation who

helps fund ACORN.

…..And Just for fun……

Theresa Heinz Kerry, Boston, MA, wife of Senator John Kerry and probably a real close pal of Jennifer Brunner, gave $10,000

Herb and Marion Sandler, Oakland, CA, billionaire financier, sold their World Savings S&L holding company to

Wachovia for 24 billion just before the crash, it’s now worthless and Wachovia is no more. They’re really smart

people I guess, Jennifer is lucky to have them as friends. They managed to scrape together 6,000 bucks

George Soros, Billionaire businessman, from New York, NY, reached into his pocket for some change and

could only find $2500 for Jennifer

And last but not least, Barbara Striesand, Actress from Hollywood, sent Jennifer a grand and a DVD of Funny Girl

Jennifer Brunner appeals judge’s decision to force

secretary of state to provide mechanism to verify voter

registration cards

Project Vote, an affiliate of ACORN contracts with ACORN to conduct voter registration

drives. In 2008 Project Vote turned in 160,000 NEW voter registration cards

Karyn Gillette, development director of Project Vote was paid $21,250 by the Brunner Campaign

to consult

A.C.O.R.N. Ties

A loophole is created in Ohio voter law to allow voters to register and vote at the same time.

Jennifer Brunner issues directive to all boards of elections to mandate all new registrants to be

given ballot when they register.

GOP sues to stop tactic and verify registrations before vote is cast

Law suit is stopped by Ohio Supreme Court and over 200,000

unverified ballots are counted.

Election results: Jennifer Brunner-2,104,010 other candidates-1,819,188

Now, to the whole purpose of this convoluted money machine, and why secretaries of state are being

targeted

Its been interesting doing this research on Jennifer Brunner. She represents everything wrong with our leaders. Whether you agree or disagree with

Jennifer Brunner on issues, you must believe that this much money is not being given, without some expectation of certain behavior. At best, its

unethical to take money from these groups and at worst, its illegal to take money from individuals that the money doesn’t come from them, but from billionaires trying to destroy America. It would be bad enough, if a public servant was taking money for contracts or perks, but what you are seeing

happening in this presentation, is a concerted effort to use money and power to dramatically change America. This change is not about going from a

conservative government to a liberal one, this is a change that will destroy the America we all grew up in and love so much. Americans of all stripes must

come together to stop the government and the global corporations from bringing America to her knees. We sincerely hope you will become involved in helping to save our country. Join a 912 group, a tea party, or any other grass

roots organization that can help to elect good people, with values and principles, that will fix the problems that have been created by the largess and

corruption in government. Its not to late! Share this presentation with as many as you can, because the first step is to educate and inform an apathetic

electorate.
