Greenspan once remarked that he considered Rubin the best Republican secretary of the treasury ever, though he was a Democrat.

OBAMA got his chance at the Presidency by aligning himself with Robert Rubin using Rubin’s connections to the multitude of CROOKS (SUMMERS AND GEITHNER) in the Clinton White House. Rubin saw Obama as someone he could MOLD into a NEAR-PERFECT WALL STREET PUPPET run by RUBIN’S CONFIDENCE MEN. Rubin had already done that with BILL CLINTON.

Robert Rubin + Jesse Jackson = Supported the reversal of Glass-Steagall. = “How Reagan Republicans and Clinton Democrats Enriched Wall Street and Mugged Main Street.” = Turned the henhouse over to the foxes. Obama = Latest frontman for Wall Street = Shocking.
