Clinton - Supporting Jobs Outside Us

If I am not mistaken Hillary Clinton is running on jobs platform of keeping jobs in the US and investing in the US. Well I think she should get that across to her own family first:

Used to be investor ........ depends on when Clinton owned Stock .... like the KBR / cheny / Haliburton water story ....

I despise Klinton as much as the next conservative, but if this happened after Elvis Left the Building ........ hard to pin it on slick willie

Quote:
Clinton's connection is via an investment in Brenco by The Yucaipa Cos., a U.S.-based fund in which Clinton was a senior advisor until last year. His investment in Brenco is valued between $15,001 and $50,000, according to a financial disclosure report submitted last year by his wife, presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Yucaipa, whose chairman is prominent Democratic billionaire Ron Burkle, holds an overall 2.8 percent stake in the initial $200 million raised by Brenco last year to start up operations in Brazil's booming ethanol sector.

Bill Clinton spokesman Matt McKenna said that the former president's investment made via Yucaipa was small but that he had been assured Brenco was "committed to the highest ethical standard with regard to the treatment of its workforce and of the environment."
When Spokes persons, start throwing out phrases like this it raises questions

but then nothing coming from the Klinton's is never anything but carefully scripted ...... i doubt if they Klinton or Ron Burkle really new what the working conditions were ...... just wither they could make a buck .....


Quote:
Brenco's investors include Vinod Khosla, a venture capitalist who was one of the co-founders of Sun Microsystems; America Online founder Stephen Case; Hollywood producer and Democratic fundraiser Steven Bing, another close Clinton ally; and former World Bank President James Wolfensohn.

The company is run by Henri Philippe Reichstul, the former chief executive of Brazil's state-run oil company, Petroleo Brasileiro SA.
