Pandering, meet influence pedling---29of 30 Dow Companies Invest in Clinton

Dow Companies Invest in Clinton -- With One Holdout - Bloomberg:
"The blue-chip political investment for big business is Clinton Inc.
Twenty-nine of the 30 Dow Jones (INDU) Industrial Average index companies have given money or in-kind support to projects branded by Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, according to a review of Clinton Foundation and U.S. State Department reports.
The main gates to Clintonworld are the Clinton Foundation, an umbrella group overseeing the former president’s causes such as raising money to help earthquake-ravaged Haiti, and its spinoff Clinton Global Initiative, which recruits corporate sponsors for international charitable projects.
Major corporations also responded to a call for cash from the State Department during Hillary Clinton’s tenure."
